Effectiveness of a Prehabilitation Program for Hip or Knee Arthroplasty Surgery.

"A prehabilitation programme supervised by a physiotherapist in a ward is proposed, with a frequency of 3 sessions/week on alternate days lasting 30-45 min/session, in addition to a daily physical exercise programme at home.~The programme will consist of a warm-up, strength exercises with progressive loads, proprioception, balance, cardiovascular training aimed at functional work and a cool-down.~The home programme will be complementary to the supervised programme, which will consist of daily sessions of 20-30 min of flexibility and proprioception exercises.~The same prehabilitation protocol will be proposed for those patients awaiting total hip and knee replacement surgery."

The control group (CG) will carry out a post-operative physiotherapy program in addition to a home exercise program that will be shown by the physiotherapist before hospital discharge.
