简要总结
We plan to carry out a six weeks randomized clinical trial. We will compare the effectiveness between eccentric and isometric strengthening exercise for participants with knee osteoarthritis. This study aims to determine the knee osteoarthritis-related sociodemographic characteristics, baseline comparison at pretest and determine the effectiveness of eccentric strengthening exercise on pain, pressure pain threshold, muscle strength, functional disability, range of motion, six minutes walk test and depression severity of knee osteoarthritis patients after completing interventions. There will be also a follow-up period for 12 weeks. We expect better treatment outcome after 18 sessions of intervention for knee osteoarthritis participants who receive eccentric strengthening exercise along with conventional care.
