Postoperative pain (visual analog scale) day 1-4
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a successful treatment for end-stage osteoarthritis of the
 knee. The main advantages of TKA are to relieve the pain of the knee, improve the knee
 function, restore lower limb alignment, and improve the quality of life for patients. During
 TKA, some surgeons prefer using a scalpel while others using electrocautery to expose the
 articular cavity. Whether the use of scalpel can lead to better and faster recovery after the
 primary TKA is still controversial.
 
 The aim of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes of using the scalpel and the
 electrocautery in primary TKA
