Combined Cyclic Compression Cryotherapy and Phased Rehabilitation Training for Recovery After Knee Replacement 100 Exercise-Based

Active, not recruiting
Clinical Trial NCT07089212 is an interventional study for Knee Arthroplasty, Total, Rehabilitation Therapy that is active, not recruiting. It started on 23 April 2025 with plans to enroll 100 participants. Led by Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, it is expected to complete by 1 September 2025. The latest data from ClinicalTrials.gov was last updated on 28 July 2025.
Brief Summary
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is an effective treatment for severe knee joint diseases; however, postoperative complications such as pain, swelling, and delayed functional recovery remain common challenges. Cyclic compression cryotherapy, which applies alternating cold and pressure to the knee joint, can effectively reduce swelling and alleviate pain. Meanwhile, phased rehabilitation training, tailored to the specifi...Show More

Active Comparatorconventional rehabilitation treatment.
The control group underwent a 12-week conventional rehabilitation program, which primarily included muscle strength training, endurance training, proprioception training, and joint range of motion (ROM) exercises. Assessments were conducted at baseline (before treatment), as well as at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, and 12 weeks post-treatment. The evaluated outcomes included knee joint ROM, muscle strength, knee function, pain l...Show More

ExperimentalCyclic cryotherapy combined with staged rehabilitation treatment.
The experimental group received cyclic compression cryotherapy combined with phased rehabilitation training in addition to the conventional rehabilitation program, with a total intervention duration of 12 weeks.
Phased Rehabilitation Training
Rehabilitation is divided into three postoperative phases: Early Phase (Weeks 1-2): Focus on edema control, quadriceps activation, and passive/active-assisted range of motion (ROM) exercises. Intermediate Phase (Weeks 3-6): Progress to strength training, endurance exercises, and early proprioception drills. Late Phase (Weeks 7-12): Advance to functional training , dynamic proprioception, and full ROM restoration.
Cyclic Compression Cryotherapy
Initiation: Begin within 24 hours postoperatively. Each session lasts 20-30 minutes, administered 2-3 times daily. Procedure: Apply a cryotherapy wrap circumferentially around the knee using a pneumatic compression device, with precise control of pressure and temperature. Pressure Settings: Start at Level I-II (low-to-moderate) and adjust incrementally based on patient tolerance. Temperature Control: Maintain at 1...Show More
