Summary

The aim of this study was to examine the efficacy of Kinesiotaping (KT) within postoperative rehabilitation after Total Knee Replacement (TKR) surgery by determining whether KT enhances early postoperative outcomes, in terms of reduction of swelling, pain relief and improvement in the function of the knee joint, compared to conventional rehabilitation without the use of KT.

Conditions

  • Total Knee Replacement
  • Postoperative Recovery
  • Rehabilitation Outcome
