Pain etc. While conditions can be relieved by pharmacological treatment methods, non-pharmacological treatments can be effective in relieving patients' pain. With the relief of pain, it will be possible to eliminate the kinesiophobia experienced by the patients. It is known that humor, which is among the non-pharmacological treatment methods, increases the pain resistance of the patients, reduces the stress hormone, and strengthens the immune system. It is reported in the literature that listening to music, another non-pharmacological treatment, is also effective in relieving pain after TKA. For this reason, the study was planned to determine the effect of postoperative music and comedy films on kinesiophobia and pain in patients undergoing TKA.
