Study type | Interventional |
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) consists of a surgical replacement of this joint by a prosthesis, and it is mainly carried out in cases of knee osteoarthrosis. In the postoperative period of TKA, the pain is intense and limits the mobility of patients, so the analgesia is one of the goals of the physical therapy. One of the alternatives available for pain management is the transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), characterized by the application of an electric pulsed current through electrodes positioned on the skin. Therefore, the present study aims to evaluate the acute effects of TENS associated with conventional physical therapy compared with conventional physical therapy on the pain level, knee range of motion and administration of morphine in the rehabilitation of patients after TKA.

Primary | Change in Pain Level From Baseline to 90 Minutes | It was measured by Visual Analogue Pain Scale (VAS), which has scores ranging from zero (which means "no pain") to 10 (which means "worst possible pain"). Two evaluations of the pain level were performed in each group, before and after the interventions. | 90 minutes | |
Secondary | Number of Participants Who Received Morphine Within 24 Hours | It was evaluated based on the information found in patients' electronic records, considering whether they received morphine during the 24 hours following the interventions or not. | 24 hours | |
Secondary | Change in Knee Range of Motion From Baseline to 30 Minutes | It was extracted from the continuous passive movement device display. During the use of the continuous passive movement device (CPM), from the observation of the digital display in its control, the degrees of amplitude reached in the passive movements of flexion and extension of the knee submitted to the surgery were extracted. | 30 minutes |
