Factors predicting weight-bearing asymmetry 1 month after unilateral total knee arthroplasty: A cross-sectional study

Highlights ► Weight-bearing asymmetry (WBA) is present early after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). ► Predictors of WBA early after TKA must be identified to allow targeted intervention. ► This study examined predictors of WBA 1-month after TKA. ► Preoperative WBA and lower limb strength asymmetries p...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights ► Weight-bearing asymmetry (WBA) is present early after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). ► Predictors of WBA early after TKA must be identified to allow targeted intervention. ► This study examined predictors of WBA 1-month after TKA. ► Preoperative WBA and lower limb strength asymmetries predicted asymmetry after TKA.
