Innovative Physiotherapy Techniques in Total Knee Replacement Rehabilitation: A Narrative Review
Danishta, Mayank Kumar, Anchit Gugnani
Abstract: Introduction: Total Knee Replacement (TKR) is a widely performed procedure for managing end - stage knee osteoarthritis, significantly reducing pain and enhancing functional mobility. However, the postoperative rehabilitation process is critical to achieving optimal recovery. Traditional physiotherapy methods, while effective, often result in slow recovery rates and suboptimal long - term outcomes. Innovative physiotherapy techniques have emerged to address these limitations, incorporating technological advancements and evidence - based practices. Methodology: This narrative review synthesized data from peer - reviewed studies, clinical trials, and systematic reviews focusing on advanced physiotherapy modalities in TKR rehabilitation. Inclusion criteria encompassed research on techniques such as Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES), virtual reality (VR) - based training, aquatic therapy, blood flow restriction therapy, and robotic - assisted rehabilitation. Studies with inadequate methodological rigor or unrelated to TKR were excluded. Conclusion: Integrating innovative physiotherapy techniques into TKR rehabilitation protocols has the potential to revolutionize recovery practices. These approaches address the limitations of conventional methods, offering personalized and effective solutions. Future research should focus on optimizing these techniques and exploring their long - term benefits to improve TKR outcomes further.
