Summary
This study tested whether a special non-compressive bioactive garment helps people recover better than standard TED stockings after total knee replacement. Twenty-three patients wore either the new garment or the standard hose, and researchers measured pain, swelling, range of motion, and painkiller use. The goal is to find a more comfortable way to reduce pain and swelling right after surgery.
