About
Walking speed after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) can be used as a simple tool to monitor postoperative recovery. There are different protocols for gait assessment in patients with TKA. The 30 Second Fast Walk Test (30SFW) is a simple, low-cost and easy-to-apply assessment method that requires very little equipment in clinical settings. 30SFW is a reliable, valid test of walking ability in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).
Objective: To investigate the reliability and validity of the 30SFW test in the evaluation of gait in patients with TKA.
