  1. The changes in the proportions of patients were found to be non-significant (Cochran test).
  2. BRT: Brake Response Time
  3. TKA: Total Knee Arthroplasty
  4. pre-op: preoperative (1 day before surgery)
  5. post-op: postoperative (2 weeks after surgery)
  6. FU: follow-up (8 weeks after surgery)
