Introduction
I am an experienced Senior Orthopaedic Physiotherapist, currently involved in knee rehabilitation research. This research involves the efficacy of differing physiotherapy protocols, taking into account patient beliefs and expectations, in the early postoperative period following total knee arthroplasty.

Background
The length of hospital stay after lower limb arthroplasty has rapidly decreased in the last decade, largely in part due to the rise of improved perioperative protocols, but also as a response to the increased economic demand associated with the rapid growth in hip and knee arthroplasty procedures. In line with this, the development of a...
Context:
Acute lateral ankle sprain (LAS) is a common injury in athletes and is often associated with decreased athletic performance and, if treated poorly, can result in chronic ankle issues, such as instability. Physical performance demands, such as cutting, hopping, and landing, involved with certain sport participation suggests that the rehabi...
Background:
General practitioners play a vital and increasing part in the perioperative care of patients undergoing total knee replacement (TKR). Rising obesity rates, sports-related injuries and an ageing population are likely to result in a sharp increase in TKR procedures within the next decade, combined with higher cost concerns. Rehabilitatio...
Background:
Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) reduces pain and improves function in those suffering from severe osteoarthritis. A significant cost of TKA is post-acute care, however, current evidence suggests that discharge to an Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility (IRF) has inferior outcomes to home discharge, with no greater benefit in physical functi...
Background
The role of inpatient rehabilitation after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remains uncertain, with evidence suggesting no better functional outcomes for those who discharge to rehabilitation to those who discharge home. The aim of this study was to develop and implement a preoperative predictive tool, ARISE (Arthroplasty Rehabilitation Ini...

Background:
Despite the routine use of physical therapy in the immediate and early postoperative phase for patients who undergo total knee replacement (TKR), there is a paucity of research into the optimal exercise protocols in both the acute inpatient setting and early period after discharge. Pedaling has often been recommended by clinicians afte...
Background
Total knee replacement (TKR) patients participate in early supervised exercise therapy programs, despite a lack of evidence for such programs or the optimal type, duration or frequency to provide the best clinical outcomes. As hospital stay rates decrease worldwide, the first days after joint replacement surgery are of increasing clinica...
