Study Overview
Brief Summary
Evaluation of the Efficiency of Propioceptive Study According to Radiological Stages in Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis
Detailed Description
Investigators divided patients with knee osteoarthritis into two groups. Group 1 consisted of stage 1 and stage 2 patients. Group 2 consisted of stage 3 and stage 4 patients. Proprioceptive training was applied in both groups. Investigators aim is to evaluate the effect of proprioceptive exercises on knee osteoarthritis according to the radiological level.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC)
Time Frame: Evaluation will be performed before treatment and after 4 weeks rehabilitation program.
The scale consists of 3 main headings and 24 questions. It is scored between 0 and 100. There is a negative correlation between scoring and functionality.
Secondary Outcomes
- Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)(Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks)
- Pressure Pain Threshold Measurement(Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks)
- Manual Muscle Test(Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks)
- Proprioception Sense(Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks)
- Timed Up and Go Test (TUG)(Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks)
- Short Form 36 (SF-36)(Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks)
- Range of Motion (ROM)(Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks)
- Global Rating of Change (GRC) Scale(4 weeks)
- International Physical Activity Scale (IPAQ)(Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks)
