Article Synopsis
- Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) aims to alleviate pain and disability in patients with knee arthritis, but some experience persistent postoperative pain (PPP) even after surgery.
- A study assessed 242 patients for various factors, measuring pain using the WOMAC index before and after surgery, and found that 13.22% and 9.09% still had moderate-to-severe pain after 6 and 12 months, respectively.
- Key predictive factors for PPP included higher preoperative WOMAC scores, loosened prosthesis, and elevated anxiety and depression levels, highlighting the importance of psychological health in recovery outcomes.
