简要总结

This cross sectional study aims to determine the relationship between toe grip strength and dynamic balance and mobility in patients with knee osteoarthritis. 147 individuals between 45 to 65 years, diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis for a duration of more than 3 months will be recruited on basis of convenience sampling. The toe grip strength will be measured using the pinch gauge dynamometer. Dynamic balance and mobility will be assessed using the Functional Reach test and Timed Up & Go test respectively. An average of three trails will be recorded in a single session. The study will be conducted in a tertiary medical college hospital in Dakshina Kannada.
