Objective:

To investigate the association between preoperative physical activity patterns, measured using wearable sensors, and recovery outcomes after total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Key Findings:
  • Preoperative physical activity patterns are associated with postoperative mobility, pain, and quality of life.
  • Patients with more intense and consistent preoperative activity demonstrated better recovery outcomes.
Interpretation:

Remove unsupported conclusions or rephrase to reflect the study's findings without editorial interpretation.

Limitations:
  • The study's findings may not be generalizable beyond the specific population studied.
  • Potential biases related to self-selection of participants who are willing to wear devices continuously.
Conclusion:

Revise to eliminate unsupported implications and focus on findings directly stated in the source.
