Declarations of interest
Two of the review authors (AM and AP) are Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeons who routinely undertake independent TKR surgery.
Both AM and AP currently routinely perform TKR surgery with a tourniquet unless their patients express a preference or there are contraindications to using a tourniquet.
Acknowledgements
We would like to acknowledge the following members of the Safety and Feasibility Evaluation of Knee Replacement Surgery (SAFE‐TKR) Study Group: Ms Bushra Rehman, Ms Jaclyn Brown, Mr James Smith, Mrs Christine Goulden, Mrs Jan Dixox, Dr Nele Demeyere and Professor JM Wilkinson.
The review forms part of a larger project (SAFE‐TKR Study) and is independent‐research‐funded by the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) under a Post‐Doctoral Fellowship Award (PDF‐2015‐08‐108). The study is sponsored by the University of Warwick. The study funder and sponsor had no role in the study design; the collection, analysis, or interpretation of data; the writing of the report; or the decision to submit for publication. The researchers are independent and the views expressed are those of the authors and not necessarily those of the NHS, the NIHR or the Department of Health.
We would like to acknowledge the contribution of Andrew Sprowson, who died unexpectedly on 13 March 2015. Andrew was one of the main collaborators on this project and had made a significant contribution to the study design and in securing research funding. Andrew was an academic orthopaedic surgeon who was dedicated to improving evidence‐based care in his field. He was an exceptionally enthusiastic researcher and surgeon and is greatly missed by his academic and clinical colleagues.
