研究组 & 干预措施
Balance training + conventional exercises
Assessment will be performed pre and post of intervention. Intervention will be given 3 days a week for 8 weeks. Each session will include a 5-min warm-up on a fitness bike or treadmill before commencement of the program and a 5-min cool period. Participants of this group will receive balance training with conventional treatment. Participants will perform between 2 sets of 5 and 7 repetitions of each exercise.
Single leg balance
Walking forward Walking backward Side stepping Walk heel to toe Static exercises with eyes close or open
CONVENTIONAL EXERCISE PROGRAM :
TENS for 15 minutes Hot pack for 15 minutes
Participants will perform between 2 sets of 7 and 10 repetitions of each exercise:
Quadriceps/hamstring isometric exercises. ROM and active stretching of the hamstring and quadriceps muscle. Active ankle pump. Squats,step-up, sit to stand, calf raises Straigh leg raising exercise in crook lying position
干预措施: Experimental Group (Other)
Only conventional

结局指标
主要结局
Numeric rate pain scale
时间窗: 6-8 Weeks
This is the scale to measure pain level of participants. 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).
Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC)
时间窗: 6-8 Weeks
It is widely used in the evaluation of Knee Osteoarthritis. It is a questionnaire consisting of 24 items divided into 3 subscales. Pain (5 items), Stiffness (2 items) and Physical Function (17 items). The test questions are scored on a scale of 0-4, which correspond to: None (0), Mild (1), Moderate (2), Severe (3), and Extreme (4). The scores for each subscale are summed up, with a possible score range of 0-20 for Pain, 0-8 for Stiffness, and 0-68 for Physical Function. Usually a sum of the scores for all three subscales gives a total WOMAC score, however there are other methods that have been used to combine scores. Higher scores on the WOMAC indicate worse pain, stiffness, and functional limitations.
Berg balance scale (BBS)
时间窗: 6-8 Weeks
To measure the functional performance of muscle, balance system. It grade the individual as having high, low and moderate risk of fall. It is a 14 item list with each item consisting of a five-point ordinal scale ranging from 0 to 4, with 0 indicating the lowest level of function and 4 the highest level of function and takes approximately 20 minutes to complete. It does not include the assessment of gait.
