Filter by:The goal of this pre-post clinical trial is to compare the amplitude settings of three different frequency TENS modes (Conventional TENS, LF TENS, HF TENS) in patients who had undergone total knee arthroplasty, both with the preoperative state and with the contralateral knee. The main question it aims to answer is: Can the electrical resistance of edematous tissue be affected and change the TENS amplitude setting? Participants will be evaluated before and after surgery. For each TENS modulation the amplitude at which tingling is felt, the current is clearly felt, and is maximum tolerated and/or muscle contraction occurred, will be documented. TENS amplitudes for all three TENS modes will be compared, both with the preoperative state and with the contralateral knee.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate a prototype of an intelligent stocking (Edema Stocking Device [ESD]), consisting of two stretch sensitive sensors, as a new method for continuously lower leg volume monitoring. The study is a scientific evaluation of the ESD compared with water displacement volumetry and tape measure.
This study will investigate whether the recovery of muscle function of total knee arthroplasty is accelerated with the use of the gekoTM device along with its effect on reducing symptoms such as oedema and inhibition of the muscle function.
Device Efficacy: The primary efficacy assessment will be defined as successful if the edema volume will be reduced over time after using the SACS 2.0 device. Treatment and edema evaluation will be performed in comparison to a standard compression bandage. The treatment will be performed for several hours during the subject's daily rest time. The Measurements will be performed daily before treatment initiation and without the device on the leg (baseline) (T0); and after four hours of device operation. The edema volume will be measured by a calf circumference measurement.
