Abstract in brief

  • The systematic review examined whether patients' expectations before knee or hip surgery influence their recovery, finding some evidence that positive expectations and confidence (self-efficacy) are linked to better long-term outcomes like pain relief, function, and overall satisfaction.
  • Many of the studies analyzed had a high risk of bias, which means the results should be interpreted with caution, but unadjusted data generally suggest a beneficial effect of holding positive expectations before surgery.
  • Future research should focus on matching specific preoperative expectations with particular outcomes (like pain or mobility) to better understand how expectations shape postoperative recovery.
