Abstract

Background: Total knee arthroplasty is a medical treatment that involves removing the diseased knee and replacing it with a prosthesis. Following a total knee arthroplasty, postoperative knee swelling and pain are frequent. Compression therapy is often offered as part of rehabilitation to improve postoperative patient- knee pain and swelling. Aim: To investigate the effect of a rehabilitation program regarding compression therapy on post-surgical swelling and pain among patients with total knee arthroplasty.  Research design: To achieve the goal of this study, a quasi-experimental research design was used. Setting: This study was carried out in Orthopedic Surgery Department at Ain Shams University Hospital.  Subjects: The study included a purposive sample of 100 adult patients who were randomly and equally divided into two groups (50 each), the first was the control group and the second was the study group (compression therapy group).  Tools of data collection: Four tools were utilized; Tool (I): Structured interviewing questionnaire consisted of two parts: Part (1): Patients' personal data sheet and Part (2): Patients' medical data sheet Tool (II): Range of motion scale, Tool (III): Swelling measuring scale, Tool (IV): Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain.
