Abstract
Kinesiophobia (fear of movement) has been recognized as a significant barrier to recovery and rehabilitation in patients after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Our goal was to identify predictors of kinesiophobia and examine its correlation with early functional outcomes in TKA recipients. On the first and fifth postoperative days (POD1 and POD5), we evaluated pain using the International Pain Outcomes Questionnaire (IPO-Q) and created multidimensional pain composite scores (PROs). Functional status on POD 5 was determined by the Barthel index, 6-minute walking test, and knee range of motion. Kinesiophobia was measured on POD5 using the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK) and multivariable logistic regression was used to assess factors associated with kinesiophobia. Among 75 TKA patients, 27% exhibited kinesiophobia. The final regression model highlighted PRO1 (OR=1.6, CI=1.1-2.5), PRO2 (OR=2.1, CI=1.3-3.5), and education level (OR=0.6, CI=0.04-10.6) as significant kinesiophobia predictors. On POD5, those with kinesiophobia showed increased dependency, slower gait, and poorer knee extension recovery. Pain is a significant predictor of kinesiophobia after TKA. Furthermore, kinesiophobia has a significant impact on early functional outcomes after surgery. Using composite pain scores for pain evaluation offers a more comprehensive approach to understanding the connection between pain and kinesiophobia.
