Abstract

Introduction

Little is known about employment following revision total knee arthroplasty (RTKA). This study aims to describe factors associated with returning to employment in patients of working age who underwent RTKA surgery.

Methodology

We performed a retrospective assessment of all patients aged ≤65 who underwent RTKA at our NHS institution between 2006 and 2020. All indications and revision procedures were included. Pre-operative demographics, indication for surgery and Oxford Knee Scores (OKS) were recorded. Postal questionnaires were sent to patients including patient reported outcome measures and departmental questionnaire asking patients about employment status pre- and post-operatively.
