- Brief Summary
The osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic and degenerative disease which brings articular cartilage degeneration. As a consequence, balance and proprioception could be dangerously reduced after total knee arthroplasty.
Several studies demonstrated the correlation between OA, proprioception reduction and increased risk of falling. The aim of this study is to evaluate the proprioception improvement in patients with total knee arthroplasty.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Improvement of a proprioception 24 months Stability Index (SI) in percentage the maximum is 100%
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Evaluation of performance in lower limb questionnaire 24 months Short Physical Performance Battery - SPPB The score range from 0 (wost performance) to 12 (best performance)
KSS Score 24 months The score range from 0 to 100 with lower scores being indicative of worse knee conditions and higher scores being indicative of better knee conditions
Clinical score 24 months Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index the WOMAC evaluates 3 dimensions: pain, stiffness, and physical function with 5, 2, and 17 questions, respectively. The Likert version of the WOMAC is rated on an ordinal scale of 0 to 4, with lower scores indicating lower levels of symptoms or physical disability.
