Detailed description
The study is defined as prospective, randomized, interventional single-center; the general aim is to evaluate the post-operative recovery of the patient who carries out rehabilitation with the one day protocol (Group A), compared to the patient who carries out rehabilitation during the hospital stay with the fast protocol (group B). The difference will be evaluated with the Knee Society Scopre (KSS) questionnaire at 1 month after the operation. The population is made up of two groups of patients: 25 patients Group A: one day protocol; experimental group discharged home the day (24h) after the operation and carrying out rehabilitation according to the clinical standard 25 patients Group B: fast protocol; control group discharged to the rehabilitation department of the Institute 48 hours after surgery which carries out rehabilitation during the hospital stay according to the clinical standard The subjects will undergo the following assessments: * Pre-admission * Knee replacement surgery * Rehabilitation * Questionnaires and evaluation scales at 7 and 15 days (+/- 2 days), at 1, 3, 6 months (+/- 7 days) and 12 months (+/- 1 month) after surgery. If necessary, they can be collected by telephone.
