Study Summary
This study will examine the effects, if any, of using muscle stimulation on the quadriceps following a total knee replacement. Secondary objectives will be to evaluate and compare pain levels, qualitative outcomes, and the impact of NMES on pain medication requests between groups. It is possible that strengthening the quadriceps muscles and improving their activation will reduce postoperative pain and help patients return to activities sooner than with standard therapy alone.
Primary Outcome
Change in quadriceps force is the difference between average quadriceps force measurements (in Newtons) obtained at the 1-year postoperative follow-up minus the average quadriceps force measurement at baseline. Averages are stratified by study arm. Negative values indicate a reduction in quadriceps force from baseline measurement to 1-year.
