Brief Summary:
The purpose of the study is to investigate whether a 12-week neuromuscular rehabilitation program (NEMEX-TJR) combined with pain neuroscience education (PNE) provides greater pain relief, improvement in physical function and quality of life than PNE alone in a population of patients with chronic pain after primary total knee arthroplasty.
Hypothesis: Rehabilitation involving neuromuscular training and PNE will provide greater pain relief, improved function and improved quality of life compared to PNE alone at the primary endpoint, which is follow-up 12months after the start of the treatment.

Detailed Description:
Osteoarthritis is considered the most frequent cause of disability and pain in the elderly population, and the knee joint is one of the joints most commonly affected.
End-stage osteoarthritis is often treated with knee replacement, and total knee arthroplasty is considered an effective treatment for pain relief and improved function. However, several studies have reported less favorable outcomes after total knee arthroplasty, and systematic reviews found chronic pain after total knee arthroplasty at 12 months post-operative in 13-17% of the patients and chronic pain rates at 2-7 years post-operative varying between 8-27%. No randomized controlled trials evaluating exercise and pain education treatments to patients with chronic pain after total knee arthroplasty exists, and this highlights the need for evidence-based knowledge of which treatment should be considered for this population.
