We run a pre-hab group for patients on the public waiting lists for THRs and TKRs. Its a six week programme including lectures on the op, and what to expect afterwards, six weeks of hydro, and home exercises including ROM, strengthening and stability exercises. I'm not sure if we've got any solid evidence regarding outcomes compared with patients without the pre-hab but subjectively the patients have reported it having a positive impact in so far as it diminishes their fear/anxiety regarding the surgery and its outcome. They feel far better prepared.
