Is clinically measured knee range of motion after total knee arthroplasty ‘good enough?’: A feasibility study using wearable inertial measurement units to compare knee range of motion captured during physical therapy versus at home

Total knee arthroplasty is highly successful, in part due to range of motion (RoM) recovery. This is typically estimated goniometrically/visually by physical therapists (PTs) in the clinic, which is imprecise. Accordingly, a validated inertial measurement unit (IMU) method for capturing knee RoM was...
