Hip osteoarthritis and knee osteoarthritis cause significant disability and pain in older adults, often leading to hip or knee replacement surgery. Prehabilitation programs have been established for these surgeries, but there are few programs for orthogeriatrics. We evaluated the feasibility of a new multimodal prehabilitation program (MPP) for older adults before hip or knee replacement due to arthrosis: the Prehabilitation for Os (PRE4OS) study.
