简要总结
The aim of this study is to assess the effect of balance exercise on dynamic balance and physical function in 80 patients with different grades of primary knee osteoarthritis (KOA).
详细描述
The study will include 80 patients with primary knee osteoarthritis divided into 4 groups according to the Kellgren and Lawrence grading scale (KL):
Group 1: 20 patients with grade I KOA Group 2: 20 patients with grade II KOA Group 3: 20 patients with grade III KOA Group 4: 20 patients with grade IV KOA
- Patients will undergo pre-exercise and post- exercise assessment with:
- Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC)
- Modified Stare Excursion Balance test
- Timed up and Go test
- Exercise program includes:
- Lower extremity kinesthesia and balance exercise program
- Strength exercise program

结局指标
主要结局
Assessment of pain
时间窗: 2-6 weeks
Using the Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), which contains pain sub-score and a overall total score. The higher the score the worst the pain.
Assessment of stiffness
时间窗: 2-6 weeks
Using the Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), which contains stiffness sub-score and a overall total score. The higher the score the worst the stiffness.
Assessment of physical function
时间窗: 2-6 weeks
Using the time up and go test, where the patient is seated and asked to get up walk a distance turn around and return to chair and sit again. It is measured using a timer, the longer the patient takes the worst the physical function of the patient.
次要结局
- Dynamic Balance(2-6 weeks)
