Informed consent and defining realistic expectations

  • サマリー

  • Here I go into how I describe to a patient what a total knee replacement is by using a total knee model. I make it a habit to not only detail all of the potential risks of the surgery but I go into detail when certain risks are higher in an individual patient (such as infection risk in a diabetic). Explaining realistic expectations up front is extremely important in my opinion to create good patient satisfaction after total knee replacement surgery. I review with my patients normal expectations such as warmth, night pain, lateral numbness and clicking that can be seen in the early post-operative period.
