Overview

Maneuverability is currently under appreciated by patients who are seeking mobility. This pilot study is examining how patients maneuverability and mobility will change with this novel mobility tool - A-Linker compared to the standard of care walker.

Description

Patients who are using a walker is randomized into two groups:

  1. 12 patients get an A-linker 3 months before surgery (knee arthroplasty)
  2. 12 patients use a walker 3 months before surgery (knee arthroplasty)

All 24 patients will undergo a total knee Arthroplasty surgery.

Questionnaires at:

0 week from randomization into two groups 6 weeks 12 weeks (surgery) 18 weeks

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Receiving total knee arthroplasty

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Not receiving total knee arthroplasty
