EVALUATION OF THE CLINICAL EFFICACY OF USING THERMAL CAMERA FOR CRYOTHERAPY IN PATIENTS WITH TOTAL KNEE ARTHROPLASTY: A PROSPECTIVE STUDY
“Post-surgical cryotherapy offers a simple, non-invasive recovery solution that may help reduce pain, swelling, bleeding, medication use, and overall recovery time following total knee arthroplasty. Clinical observations also suggest that advanced cold therapy can support a safer recovery process without increasing the risk of early or late implant-related complications.”

Our Takeaways
- Patients using advanced ORX Healthcare cold therapy experienced reduced knee swelling compared to traditional cold pack treatments.
- Clinical findings showed improved recovery indicators, including healthier post-operative haemoglobin levels and more effective temperature management.
- Patients receiving controlled cryotherapy reported lower pain levels during recovery and rehabilitation.
- Pre- and post-operative use of advanced cold therapy demonstrated significantly greater improvements in knee flexion and mobility compared to standard gel pack therapy.
- Results suggest that consistent temperature-controlled recovery systems may help support faster rehabilitation, improved comfort, and enhanced joint movement after surgery.
