| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| pain level | Pain level of patients will be measured after total knee arthroplasty ( Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) is a 10 cm ruler with "no pain" written on one end and "the worst possible pain" written on the other end. Patients mark the levels on the ruler according to their pain levels. 1-3 points on the scale are rated as mild, 4-6 points as moderate and 7-10 points as severe pain.) | After total knee arthroplasty, pain intensity will be evaluated at the 6th, 24th and 48th hours. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| edema | The knee circumference of patients will be measured before total knee arthroplasty and will be measured again at 24 and 48 hours after surgery. | Knee circumference measurements for knee edema will be made before total knee arthroplasty and at the 24th and 48th hours after total knee arthroplasty. |
| amount of drainage |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Analgesic consumption | The type and amount of analgesics used by patients after total knee arthroplasty will be recorded. | The first 24 hours and 24-48 hours after total knee arthroplasty. Analgesic consumption between hours will be recorded. |
