简要总结
As the aging population continues to grow, there is a pressing need to explore effective interventions to alleviate the symptoms of osteoarthritis, particularly in postmenopausal women who may experience unique challenges. Osteoarthritis (OA) is progressive joint disease characterized by joint inflammation and a reparative bone response and is one of the top five most disabling conditions that affects more than one-third of persons >65 years of age, commonly affecting hands, feet, spine, hips, and knees. Among the various therapeutic modalities, stretching exercises, both dynamic and static, have gained attention for their potential to enhance joint flexibility, reduce pain, and improve functional outcomes.
详细描述
The study will be a randomized clinical trial and will be conducted in Jinnah Hospital, Mafaza-Tul-Hayat Hospital Lahore and Mayo Hospital Lahore. This study will be completed in time duration of 7 months after the approval of synopsis. Non-probability convenience sampling technique will be used and 58 participants will be recruited in study after randomization. The subjects will be divided into two groups. Group A will receive dynamic stretching of hamstrings and quadriceps with static stretching and Group B will receive dynamic stretching without static stretching after warm up as baseline treatment. The tools that will be used are Osteoarthritis outcome scale Goniometer Lower extremity function scale, Strength, MMT, NPRS, after data collection data will be analyzed by using SPSS version 21

结局指标
主要结局
GONIOMETER
时间窗: 6 Weeks
Goniometer is a device used to measure joint ranges. Goniometric measurement of ROM is an important part of clinical examination in osteoarthritis knee and can give information about available knee joint motion, guide about pattern of management, and prognosis.
LOWER EXTREMITY FUNCTION SCALE
时间窗: 6 Weeks
The LEFS scores demonstrated excellent test-retest reliability (intraclass correlation coefficients ranging between 0.85 and 0.99) and demonstrated the expected relationships with measures assessing similar constructs.
STRENGTH MMT
时间窗: 6 Weeks
MMT is the most commonly used method for documenting impairments in muscle strength. Manual muscle testing is used in rehabilitation and recovery to evaluate contractile units, including muscles and tendons, and their ability to generate forces.
Numerical Pain Rating Scale
时间窗: 6 Weeks
The Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) is a subjective measure in which individuals rate their pain on an eleven-point numerical scale. The scale is composed of 0 (no pain at all) to 10 (worst imaginable pain.
