Brief Summary
Introduction: Elderly patients, the majority of the population submitted to total knee arthroplasty (TKA), have a lower capacity for adaptation to hospitalization and surgical stress. Exercise before cardiac and abdominal elective surgery was shown to reduce the number of complications. Studies have shown that preoperative exercise improves functional performance, strength and may decrease hospital stay after an ATJ. Objective: To evaluate if the program exercises before TKA improves quality of life, function, pain and body composition, time of hospitalization and number of complications of patients submitted to TKA. Methods: 44 patients awaiting TKA in IOT-HC-FMUSP will be divided into two groups. Half of the patients will undergo a multiprofessional and physical activity educational program for 20 weeks while the other half will wait for the TCA in the outpatient clinic. Patients will be evaluated through functional tests (sit-up and 30-second tests and time up and go), standardized questionnaires (WOMAC and Lequesne), quality of life scales (Euroqol-EQ-5D-5L), pain (through VAS), body composition and bone density (through densitometry), time of hospitalization and complications resulting from TKA. All of the above parameters will be assessed at baseline and 1 and 6 months after TKA. All project costs will be reported and a cost-effectiveness and cost-utility analysis will be performed.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change the functional results of patients in the sit to stand 30 seconds

Experimental
EXPERIMENTALMultiprofessional and educational Program prior to Total knee replacement TKA. (PARQVE TKA).
Control
ACTIVE COMPARATORPatients will be submitted to total knee replacement.
Interventions
Patients will participate in two days of about knee OA lectures two months apart, will also come to the hospital at months 1, 3 and 5 after the first class to consult about nutritional habits; at months 4 and 6 to participate in a group therapy session with the psychologists, 7 sessions with the physical therapy followed by 7 sessions with the physical educators team. Following this program, patients will be operated (total knee arthroplasty). Answer Womac, VAS, Lequesne, BMI and body fat percentage - at inclusion, one week prior to surgery, 1 and 6 months postoperatively. Days of hospital stay will be measured by the number of nights the patients stay in the hospital postoperatively and also days in semi-intensive. Minutes and type of physical activity - Answer at inclusion and six months postoperatively. Perform STS30 and TUG at inclusion, one week prior to surgery, 1 and 6 months postoperatively Costs will be evaluated for cost-effectiveness and cost-utility analysis

- Age between 60 and 75 years who are waiting Total knee arthroplasty
- Patients not submitted to previous arthroplasty in the lower limbs.
- Patients not submitted to infiltration in the knees up to 6 months before the study.
- Patients with no personal history of cognitive, psychiatric and / or neurological disorders, whose symptoms presented at the time of evaluation are related or significantly interfere with the functions of attention, memory, logical reasoning, comprehension, in order to impair the assimilation of the given guidelines.
- Patients with no personal history of inflammatory arthritis (rheumatoid arthritis, for example)
- Patients able to read, understand and respond to questionnaires and perform functional tests.
You may not qualify if:
- Missing in interventions and do not perform the tasks determined by the professionals.
- Patients submitted to infiltration in the knees during the study.
