Subjects and methods: Descriptive, retrospective cross-sectional study in 46 patients undergoing total knee replacement surgery, including 1 patient who received knee replacement on both sides for knee osteoarthritis treatment at Hospital E from August 2018 until December 2022. Results: The mean age of patients was 66.8 ± 7.0 years old. The mean length of hospital stay was 8.6 ± 1.3 days. Pain relief after surgery: mainly painless joints accounted for 78.7%. There are 10 joints with mild pain, accounting for 21.3%. Knee function score: All knee joints before replacing KS, KFS are <60. Postoperative KS score: 92.0 ± 6.5, postoperative KFS: 91.6 ± 8.2.
