结局指标

主要结局

Change in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis of the Knee and Hip Index (WOMAC)

时间窗: Baseline, 8, 16, 24, 36 and 52 weeks (Baseline, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 and 48 for Usual Care group)

The Index is self-administered and assesses the three dimensions of pain, disability and joint stiffness in knee and hip osteoarthritis through 24 questions. WOMAC 3.1 is available in 65 languages using either a five-point Likert scale or a 100 mm visual analog scale. The WOMAC has been subject to numerous validation studies to assess reliability and responsiveness to change in therapy, including physical forms of therapy

次要结局

  • Change in Pain: The Visual Analog Scale (VAS)(Baseline, 8, 16, 24, 36 and 52 weeks (Baseline, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 and 48 for Usual Care group))
  • Change in Pain: PROMIS Pain Interference Questionnaire(Baseline, 8, 16, 24, 36 and 52 weeks (Baseline, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 and 48 for Usual Care group))
  • Change in Joint Flexibility(Baseline, 8, 16, 24, 36 and 52 weeks (Baseline, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 and 48 for Usual Care group))
  • Change in Physical Function(Baseline, 8, 16, 24, 36 and 52 weeks (Baseline, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 and 48 for Usual Care group))
