Summary: | PURPOSEThis study comprehensively examined sedentary behaviour and physical activity patterns in people with severe knee osteoarthritis awaiting total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and in individuals after TKA.
METHODSPre-operative (n=32, mean ± SD = 69.9 ± 5.3 yr) and one-year post-operative participants with TKA (n=38, 67.9 ± 7.3 yr) wore ActiGraph GT3X+ activity monitors for 6.8 ± 0.6 days. Total sedentary time, time in long sedentary bouts (≥ 30 min) and physical activity outcomes (steps, time in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity [MVPA], cadence) were examined.
RESULTSThere were no differences between pre- and post-operative groups for total sedentary time (9.3 ± 1.4 hours per day vs. 9.2 ± 1.4, P=0.62) and number of long sedentary bouts per day (median [interquartile range] = 3.4 [1.9] vs. 3.1 [2.0], P=0.37). Daily steps, peak 30-min cadence, and peak 1-min cadence values were greater in people after TKA compared to those awaiting surgery (5935 [3316] vs. 3724 [2338], 55.6 [31.0] vs. 35.9 [19.3] and 91.5 ± 20.6 vs. 70.0 ± 23.7 respectively, all P |
