One hundred patients on the waiting list for total knee replacement at the Wirral Hospitals underwent a domiciliary pre-operative assessment with the rheumatology clinical nurse specialist. As a result of this assessment the operations of 31 of the 100 patients were postponed and seven were cancelled because of a variety of medical and surgical problems. All patients, when eventually admitted, underwent their surgery on the appointed date with no further postponements.
