The Role of Eccentric Contraction Training in the Postoperative Rehabilitation of Patients With Total Knee Arthroplasty

Eccentric contraction training may be associated with improved functional recovery after total knee arthroplasty (TKA), but its effects on pain, range of motion, and patient-reported outcomes during the early postoperative period remain unclear. This randomized controlled trial evaluated the addition of eccentric training to standard rehabilitation.
