Brief Summary

Knee osteoarthritis is a chronic joint disease and one of the leading causes of disability among adults, resulting in irreversible damage to articular cartilage and subchondral bone, osteophyte formation, joint pain and stiffness.The purpose of the study is to evaluate the acute responses of lower limb strengthening on physical function and pain, in patients operated on by total knee arthroplasty.Candidates for this study will be men and women over 55 years of age who have undergone total knee arthroplasty, who are admitted to the University Clinical Hospital of Valencia, with an intervention date in 2022-2023, and who begin their physiotherapy treatment between days 1-2 post-surgical.
