The purpose of this article was to determine if the slide and flex, tighten, extend (SAFTE) approach after TKA is a satisfactory method of achieving functional range of motion (full extension and at least 90°of flexion). Of patients in the study group, 70% achieved functional range of motion by the 7-week evaluation period. SAFTE is a safe, effective, and no-cost approach to achieve functional range of motion in TKA using a single-radius, posterior-stabilized knee prosthesis.
