Discussion

Narrative review discusses the role of kinematic chain exercises in postoperative recovery for robotic TKR, suggesting benefits of both OKC and CKC.

Early kinematic chain exercises improve quadriceps strength, leading to better recovery outcomes in robotic TKR.
Open kinematic chain exercises help with safe quadriceps activation while closed kinematic chain exercises enhance joint stability.
Robotic TKR permits earlier mobilization for patients, allowing effective incorporation of kinematic chain exercises.
Standardized rehabilitation protocols tailored for robotic TKR are essential to maximize recovery benefits.

Iniyavan et al. (2025) studied this question.
