Summary

The purpose of this investigation is to examine the effect of, and improve patient compliance and motivation following total knee arthroplasty; to determine the efficacy of two post-surgical exercise programs on knee pain, function, range of motion, strength, and swelling (girth); and to establish a panel of biomarkers that will allow: a) early identification of patients at risk (i.e. unable to complete post-operative treatment) and; b) predict the likelihood of a successful treatment outcome post-surgically.
