This is an invaluable resource for patients about to undergo knee replacement - and those that want to help their recovery. Every year, more than 250,000 knee replacements around the world are undertaken - a number that is set to rise dramatically in the coming decades due to an ageing population."Your Guide to Total Knee Replacement" is an easy-to-understand volume that prepares patients for knee replacement and will aid them in a fast and full recovery. It includes practical advice on getting your home ready for your return after surgery; understanding the nature of the surgery; why and how to get in good physical health before the operation; exercises to do during your recovery; and, how to go about bathing, dressing, walking, and doing other daily post-operative activities.
