Core Tip |
Prevalence of osteoarthritis (OA) increases with age and contributes to pain, physical inactivity, and mental distress, eventually resulting in high disease burden and low quality of life. As the last resort for late knee OA, total knee arthroplasty (TKA) aims to relieve knee pain by replacing knee joints’ articular surfaces. The emergence of the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic had interrupted elective surgery and rehabilitation, including TKA for OA patients. The self-management strategies and impacts of delayed TKA may bring interesting insight. This study aimed to determine the associations of TKA waiting time and pain status with physical frailty and function among older patients. |
