Overview

Exploratory analysis reveals key factors impacting patients' decisions for revision knee replacement, highlighting accessibility and mobility issues.

Key Points

  • Patients emphasize the importance of normality and continuity of care in the decision for revision knee replacement.
  • Mobility and dependency issues significantly affect patients' accessibility to surgical expertise in different healthcare systems.
  • Exploratory analysis through semi-structured interviews with 7 patients aged 61 to 86 shows varied perspectives on surgery.
  • Findings indicate that using local services for shorter hospital visits may improve patient satisfaction and access.
