REIKI IN TOTAL KNEE ARTHROPLASTY PATIENTS (REIKI TKA )
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is commonly performed to improve mobility and quality of life in patients with degenerative joint diseases. However, severe postoperative pain, limited mobilization, and fluctuations in vital signs negatively affect recovery, particularly within the first 72 hours after surgery. Reiki is a non-invasive complementary therapy aimed at enhancing the body's self-healing capacity through energy transfer. This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effects of Reiki on postoperative pain, mobilization, and vital signs in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty. Participants will be randomly assigned to either a Reiki intervention group or a control group receiving routine postoperative care. Outcomes will be assessed using validated pain and mobility scales and objective vital sign measurements at the 24th, 48th, and 72nd postoperative hours.

Effects of tDCS Combined With CBI on Postsurgical Pain
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a new medical technology can help reduce post-operative total knee or hip pain when combined with a Cognitive-Behavioral intervention (CBI). This new medical technology, is called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), it uses a very small amount of electricity to temporarily stimulate specific areas of the brain thought to be involved in pain reduction. The electrical current passes through the skin, scalp, hair, and skull and requires no additional medication, sedation, or needles. This study will investigate the effects of tDCS, the Cognitive-Behavioral (CB) intervention and their combination on pain among veterans following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) or total hip arthroplasty (THA). The Veteran may benefit in the form of decreased pain and opioid requirements following knee or hip replacement surgery. However, benefit is only likely if Veterans are randomized to one of the 3 (out of 4) groups. This study hopes to determine the effects of these interventions and combined effect on post-operative pain, opioid use and functioning during the 48-hour post-operative period following a total knee or hip replacement.
