Abstract

Total knee replacement (TKR) is considered to be among the most successful type of orthopedic surgery, with 15-year-survival-rate of implant exceeding 95%; furthermore, the improvement in quality of life is very significant. This study aims to describe the demographics, length of hospitalization and short-term outcome observed in patients undergoing TKR at Sanglah Hospital in 2018. All patients undergoing TKR at Sanglah Hospital in 2018 have been prospectively entered into our database. A total of 59 patients were recorded on 2018 for this study and 1 revision TKR patient and 2 patients with incomplete data were excluded. At baseline, 78.6% patients were female, 72.3% were Balinese and 84.1% were housewives. The mean age of patients was 63 years old. Authors also record that 44 (78.6%) patients are Overweight patients (BMI 25.00-29.99 kg/m2), 11 (19.6%) patients are at Obese Class I (30.00-34.99 kg/ m2) range, and only 1 (1.8%) patients have normal weight (18.50-24.99 kg/m2). As many as 51.8% patients had right TKR and 49.2% left TKR. The modus of patient’s length of stay is 7 days with 27 (48.2%) patients started to walk on the 4^th day. VAS was recorded at level 4/10 on 92.9% patient. Drain was removed after 3 days on 42 (75%) patients. 15 patients (26.8%) had PRC transfusion due to anemia after operation.
