- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is the evaluate and improve sleep quality after Total joint replacement.
- Detailed Description
Patients in early stage after TKA tend to suffer from sleep problem. Sleep disturbances frequently occur in patients after surgery, and its occurrence is harmful for postoperative recovery. Many factors can affect the quality of sleep after a major surgery including anesthesia-type, narcotic use and discomfort due to pain or restricted leg movements. Pain directly leads to sleep disruption or even deprivation and, in turn, poor-quality sleep aggravates pain sensation. There seems to be a vicious circle: pain - poor-quality sleep - intensified pain - even poorer-quality sleep.
Presumably, if a patient suffers from catastrophizing, depression and anxiety , the result of TKA will be worse due to poor sleep.
