Summary

Health professions need to prepare for the large increase in the number of older people with OA requiring health services including TJA surgery. Older age and poor physical function influences the postoperative prognosis of TJA. At discharge from hospital after TJA, studies have shown that gait speed can be severely impaired among older patients.

The investigators hypothesize that an exercise program of 6-12 weeks will be beneficial for patients that are undergoing TJA.
