    Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is performed to alleviate pain and restore function in patients with advanced knee osteoarthritis.

  • 2

    Preoperative physical activity levels may influence postoperative recovery outcomes following total knee arthroplasty.

  • 3

    Wearable sensors provide continuous monitoring of physical activity, capturing detailed real-world behaviors beyond self-reports.

  • 4

    This study aims to correlate preoperative activity patterns, measured by wearable devices, with recovery outcomes after TKA.

  • 5

    Participants were adults scheduled for unilateral TKA, monitored with SENS Motion® trackers before and after surgery.
