Summary

Researchers at Turku University Hospital are following 120 people who have same-day discharge knee replacement for osteoarthritis. Participants wear an accelerometer to measure physical activity and sleep, complete questionnaires about knee function, pain, and quality of life, and have knee strength and motion tested before and 12 months after surgery. The study compares outcomes between two types of knee replacement, partial (medial UKA) and total (TKA), and looks at how changes in activity, sleep, and strength relate to each other and to patient satisfaction.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If the study finds links between activity, sleep, and satisfaction, it could help doctors tailor recovery advice and set expectations for same-day knee replacement.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, so it can show patterns but not prove cause and effect. Results may not apply to patients with different health profiles or to other hospitals.

Who is studied

The study population consists of patients undergoing same-day discharge primary knee arthroplasty: medial UKA or TKA according to standard clinical practice at Turku University Hospital. The choice of procedure is made on clinical grounds by the treating surgeon and is not influenced by study participation. Operations are performed by experienced arthroplasty surgeons under spinal anaesthesia following the hospital's standardized same-day discharge protocol.
