Fortis Hospital, Shalimar Bagh Total Knee Replacement B/L Package

The rate of problems after total knee replacement B/L surgery is quite low. However, infection, bleeding, blood clots, ongoing pain or stiffness, and loosening or wearing out of the prosthesis are all concerns linked with low impact. Only about 2% of people suffer from major complications, such as a knee joint infection. Major medical complications, such as a heart attack or stroke, are far less common. If you have a chronic illness, complications may be more likely. The rest of the minor concerns can be readily treated with your treating doctor's prescription & instructions.

You will either be admitted to the hospital or sent home the same day as your procedure. In exceptional circumstances, you may be required to stay for one to three days. After 2-3 weeks following discharge, one can fly back home. Within 3 to 6 weeks after surgery, you should be able to resume most of your typical daily activities. For several weeks after surgery, some pain with exercise and at night is normal.

The success of your surgery will be largely dictated by how well you follow your orthopaedic surgeon's recommendations at home in the weeks after surgery-

• Post-surgery, a continuous passive motion (CPM) machine may be used to begin the physical therapy
• Wound care by avoiding soaking the wound in water until it has thoroughly sealed and dried
• A balanced diet, often with an iron supplement, is important to help your wound heal and to restore muscle strength
• Exercise is a critical component of home care, particularly during the first few weeks after surgery-
  • A graduated walking program to slowly increase your mobility, initially in your home and later outside
  • Resuming other normal household activities, such as sitting, standing, and climbing stairs
  • Specific exercises several times a day to restore movement and strengthen your knee
• See your orthopaedic surgeon for a routine follow-up examination and x-rays on a regular basis. Your surgeon will discuss the number and scheduling of these appointments with you

Reality expectations with the knee replacement surgery is that you will experience a dramatic reduction in your knee pain and a significant improvement in the ability to perform common activities of daily living. But, you should also keep this in mind that knee replacement will not allow you to do more than you could before you developed mobility issues or arthritis.

Unlimited walking, swimming, golf, driving, mild trekking, biking, ballroom dancing, and other low-impact sports are realistic activities after complete knee replacement.

Knee replacements can survive for many years if activity is modified appropriately.
