Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

Measurement of knee joint range of motion (ROM).
The study is of a prospective, prognostic, observational nature and involves all patients who are candidates for admission to the Rizzoli Orthopedic Institute for primary knee replacement surgery, recruited in the Orthopedics department and subsequently followed in the Rehabilitation Medicine department of the DRS. The recruited patients will be subjected to pre-operative measurement of the ankle ROM; if they present a limitation of the same, they will be included in the exposed group, alternatively they will be included in the non-exposed group.
In our study, the joint excursion measurements of the t-t and knee will be taken by the physiotherapists involved in the study with the patient lying in a supine position on a bed, they will be taken pre-operatively (T0) i.e. before the knee arthroplasty

Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample

Study Population

To demonstrate in a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation department that the deficit in dorsiflexion-tibia-talar joint range of motion can have an effect on the knee operated on with arthroplasty by limiting complete extension and, in general, the recovery of a complete range of motion.
