Summary
This trial will compare two methods of post-knee surgery rehabilitation to see if one is more effective than the other.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients having a total knee replacement (TKA) and can do rehab at home. It's not for those without internet or outpatient PT access, nor for revision TKA cases, or if discharged to any long-term care facilities.
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety and effectiveness of doing knee replacement rehab at home using either a web-based platform or paper manual compared to traditional outpatient physical therapy.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves physical therapy exercises rather than medication, side effects may include muscle soreness, joint pain, or injury from improper exercise technique.
