Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is one of the most common joint replacement surgeries. According to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, approximately 581, 000 TKAs are performed each year. That number is expected to reach almost 3.5 million by 2030 (Bell, 2011). After surgery, some common limitations include decreased range of motion, increased pain, increased edema, decreased strength especially in the quadriceps, decreased patellar motion, and decreased functional activity. Cryotherapy and compression are some of the most commonly used modalities to address pain and swelling following TKA. Cryotherapy has been shown to be an effective method of decreasing pain, inflammation, and edema, particularly in the acute phase of healing.
