Knee osteoarthritis cases are expected to increase because of many risk factors and increasing life expectancy. However, data about the characteristics of knee osteoarthritis patients are limited, even though this data can help clinicians know the management and are expected to be sources of information about risk factors, allowing them to educate the public about preventive measures. This research was accomplished at Prof. Dr. I.G.N.G. Ngoerah Central General Hospital using a cross-sectional method. It utilizes medical records (2022-2023) and data interviews based on the WOMAC questionnaire, which is processed using SPSS version 26. This research has a sample size of thirty. The results of this research indicate that the highest number of characteristics of patients with knee osteoarthritis who underwent total knee replacement based on gender is female (90%), based on body mass index is obesity class I (33.3%), based on age is elderly (46.7%), based on occupation is housewife (36.7%), and based on the functional degree of the knee joint after surgery using the WOMAC score is a mild classification (73.3%).
