In an initial randomised controlled trial (RCT)
we segregated 180 patients to one of two knee positions following total
knee replacement (TKR): six hours of knee flexion using either a
jig or knee extension. Outcome measures included post-operative
blood loss, fall in haemoglobin, blood transfusion requirements,
knee range of movement, limb swelling and functional scores. A second
RCT consisted of 420

Although it has been suggested that the outcome
after revision of a unicondylar knee replacement (UKR) to total knee
replacement (TKR) is better when the mechanism of failure is understood,
a comparative study on this subject has not been undertaken. A total of 30 patients (30 knees) who underwent revision of their
