Abstract
In this study, higher diastolic blood pressure and higher tourniquet pressure were found to have a correlation with thigh pain. Tissue ischemia and reperfusion may explain this finding. Tourniquet time seemed irrelevant, the reason for which might be attributed to the short tourniquet time in our study. In conclusion, factors that influence post-TKA thigh pain exist.
