Abstract

Previous research showed chronic post-total knee arthroplasty (TKA) pain in 20% of people with knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Various preoperative biopsychosocial-related factors have been described, but phenotyping people with KOA awaiting TKA based on these factors is still lacking. This could be relevant to understanding differences in TKA surgery responses.
