The Importance of Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) in Total Knee Replacement (TKR) Rehabilitation
Undergoing a Total Knee Replacement (TKR) can be life-altering, and the journey to recovery demands a dedicated rehabilitation process. Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) is a crucial component in TKR rehabilitation, as it strengthens quadriceps muscles, reduces muscle atrophy, improves voluntary muscle control, enhances circulation, and aids in pain management.

Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) is a crucial component in TKR rehabilitation, as it strengthens quadriceps muscles, reduces muscle atrophy, improves voluntary muscle control, enhances circulation, and aids in pain management. Vastus Medialis Oblique (VMO) activation, important for TKR recovery, can be achieved through targeted exercises. NMES should be incorporated into a personalised rehabilitation plan, in consultation with healthcare professionals and combined with physical therapy. Regular monitoring of progress is necessary. By incorporating NMES, patients can enhance their recovery process and regain mobility and improved quality of life post-TKR.
