Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the results of rehabilitation of patients with total knee replacement at the Rehabilitation Department of the 108 Central Military Hospital in 2025. Subjects and methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study on 43 patients after total knee replacement surgery at the Rehabilitation Department of the 108 Central Military Hospital. Patients participated in rehabilitation interventions and evaluated the results. Results and conclusions: There was an improvement in the level of thigh swelling and swelling at the joint, knee flexion and extension muscle strength, and knee flexion and extension range of motion improved over time with p < 0.05. Regarding the knee assessment score (KS), before treatment, 79.07% of patients were at a poor level, after 28 days, 2.33% of patients achieved a very good level, 90.7% achieved a good level, and 6.98% achieved an average level, the difference was significant with p < 0.05.
