Hospital Inpatient Rehabilitation | Twice-daily supervised sessions comprising an hour to an hour and a half of one-to-one physical therapy and an hour to an hour and a half of class-based exercises. These sessions comprised general aerobic components as well as general functional and muscle-specific exercises focused on restoring knee mobility, lower limb strength, and normal neuromuscular coordination, and gait patterns. |
Home Program | Participants allocated to the home program attended 1 group-based outpatient exercise session in the physical therapy department. Participants were encouraged to attend 1 to 2 classes from the third to 10th week after surgery, to assist exercise progression. |
Observational group (non-randomized) | Eligible persons who preferred to receive the home program, rather than be ran- domized, were invited to participate in an observational group and were followed up for 6 months after surgery. A selection bias toward inpatient rehabilitation was noted on commencement of the study. An observational group was followed up for analysis of a possible preference effect between those randomized to receive the home program and those who received this voluntarily. |
