Abstract
Approximately one in two people develop symptomatic knee arthritis before the age of 85 (Murphy 2008). Knee replacement is an effective surgical procedure performed for the relief of pain from end-stage arthritis (Skou 2016). Knee replacement surgery is routinely undertaken with the aid of a tourniquet around the thigh during the procedure (Gibbs 2016).
