    FAQs around Knee Replacement

    What are the different types of knee implants?

    Based on the type of implant material and their combinations, there are 4 main types of implants – metal on plastic, ceramic on plastic, ceramic on ceramic, and metal on metal. Metal on plastic implants are the most commonly used implants, however, your orthopedic surgeon will assess your condition and suggest the best implant for you.

    What factors should I consider when choosing a hospital for knee replacement?

    When looking for a hospital for knee replacement, you should consider the following –

    • Patient reviews
    • Referrals from friends and family members
    • Advancement in hospital infrastructure
    • Insurance assistance/cost of the overall treatment
    • Surgeon’s experience
    • Physiotherapy department advancement, etc.

    How long will I need physiotherapy after knee replacement?

    Physiotherapy after knee replacement can last from 1-6 months, but it usually depends on the amount of joint function the patient needs, their lifestyle, etc. Generally, full recovery from the surgery lasts a few months, especially in athletes, but in general, most patients are able to recover joint movement to perform everyday activities within 3-4 weeks.

    How long will a knee implant last?

    Most knee plants easily last for 15-20 years without any wearing or degeneration, that’s why it’s considered a once-in-a-lifetime treatment. Generally, only patients who had a knee replacement at a very young age require re-surgery.

    What percentage of knee replacement surgeries are successful?

    According to some research studies, over 90% of knee replacement surgeries have a successful outcome over a 10-year period, and about 80% of knee surgeries have successful knee function outcomes over a period of 20 years.
