Summary

The study is aimed at investigating the effects of action observation and motor imagery training in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty. Fifty participants will be enrolled during hospital admission and randomized into 2 groups (AO+MI and CTRL groups). AO+MI will undergo 12-minute AO+MI intervention for 3 days (preoperative day, first and second postoperartive days), whereas CTRL group will undergo usual care.
