Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the preventive effect of wearable transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) on chronic post-surgical pain (CPSP) following around the knee osteotomy (AKO). The intervention involves the application of TENS from the early postoperative period at the initiation of weight-bearing, aiming to alleviate pain during weight-bearing and walking.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

The primary outcome will be pain intensity at 1 year postoperatively, and between-group comparisons will be conducted using a mixed-effects model. Additionally, a complete case analysis will be performed as a sensitivity analysis.

Key secondary outcomes

Secondary outcomes include quadriceps muscle strength, pressure pain thresholds at the affected and unaffected sites, two-point discrimination, and gait analysis (varus thrust).
