Inclusion Criteria

Adult patients who would have consented to undergo a first unilateral primary total knee replacement at Golden Jubilee National hospital.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Patients listed for second or bilateral knee replacement or revision surgery
2. Patients unable to give informed written consent
3. Patients who are geographically located outside of 2 hours radius from Glasgow city centre. Transportation to patients? homes for setups and training should not take too long for the researcher.
4. Patients who have severe visual, perceptual or cognitive problems as participants should be able to use and see the visualisation and video conferencing equipment after being trained.
5. Patients who are involved in any other intervention as these may influence the outcomes and be a source of additional stress for participants.
6. Patients who are referred for outpatient physiotherapy. This gives rise to the possibility of a patient being excluded after consent has already being provided. As a consequence the patient information sheet will contain a clause informing the patient of the likelihood of being excluded as a result of postoperative outcomes.
