Total Knee Replacement Rehab Protocol: A Structured Plan for Progressive Recovery
Explore our total knee replacement rehab protocol for a step-by-step recovery plan, enhancing mobility and strength post-surgery.
The PrimusRS enables clinicians to safely guide patients through post-op knee replacement rehab with controlled resistance, helping them regain strength and functional mobility.
Address Common Knee Replacement Rehab Challenges
Prolonged Recovery Timelines: Eccentron achieves four-times-higher muscle activation than standard rehab exercises, leading to greater muscle growth and functional gains to help patients reach their goals sooner.
Insurance Denials: PrimusRS and Eccentron help clinicians quantify progress with objective reports—the tools you need to prove medical necessity for insurer approvals and reimbursement.
Loss of Strength and Endurance: Eccentron allows clinicians to deliver controlled, high-intensity eccentric resistance to help rebuild quadriceps strength with minimal fatigue, ideal for patients with low cardiopulmonary tolerance.
Low Patient Engagement: Eccentron’s real-time feedback and gamified interface keep patients working—and returning through the entire rehab process. PrimusRS boosts engagement with technology-enabled exercises and clear progress reports that show improvement session by session.
Limited Progress Tracking: All BTE systems record granular, objective data, helping clinicians streamline documentation, justify continued care, and provide clear reports to physicians, insurers, and families.
Concerns About Safety and Tolerance: PrimusRS and Eccentron feature clinician-controlled loading, enabling therapists to adjust intensity and guide patient safety from early-stage rehab to advanced strengthening.
Capture reliable data on strength, endurance, and ROM to document milestones, support payer justification, and reduce documentation time. Clinicians can export or print standardized reports for clear communication with surgeons, case managers, and families.
Clinicians can customize resistance intensities and modes to safely guide patients from early joint protection through advanced functional training. Eccentron’s closed-chain eccentric training helps rebuild quadriceps power while minimizing cardiopulmonary demand. PrimusRS facilitates isokinetic, isotonic, and isometric exercise with variable resistance modes including concentric only, eccentric only, concentric-eccentric, and unsynchronized forces for maximum versatility.
Eccentron’s game-like targets and real-time feedback help clinicians turn rehab into a motivating experience, which may boost patient effort and reduce missed appointments. BTE’s functional rehabilitation systems—PrimusRS, Eccentron, MCU, Capri, Alfa —also allows clinicians to address related cervical spine, upper extremity, balance and neurological deficits for a more holistic recovery.
Quantified Assessment & Documentation
PrimusRS helps clinicians capture reliable torque, endurance, and ROM data to support clinical decisions and strengthen payer justification.
Clinician-Controlled Progressive Loading
PrimusRS and Eccentron enable clinicians to adjust resistance, assisting in safe advancement from early protection through functional strengthening.
Engaging Real-Time Feedback
Eccentron provides clinicians with interactive displays that motivate patients, which may improve adherence and reduce cancellations.
Holistic Post-Op Care Pathway
The combined MCU, PrimusRS, and Eccentron systems equip clinicians to address cervical, core, and lower-extremity deficits.
Objective Data Capture & Reporting
All BTE systems record repeatable metrics that clinicians can export, reducing documentation time and enhancing transparency.
Functional & Eccentric Task Simulation
PrimusRS replicates daily movements while Eccentron delivers closed-chain eccentric work, allowing clinicians to strengthen patients with controlled oxygen demands.
