Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
range of motion (active flexion and extension)
Time Frame: from baseline Day 0 to end of study visit day 180
To evaluate the efficacy of collagen on knee joint flexibility as assessed by the change in the range of motion (active flexion and extension) using goniometry as compared to placebo.
Secondary Outcomes
- European Quality of Life Five Dimension five-level(from baseline (Day 0) to the end of the study (day 180))
- range of motion knee joint flexibility(from baseline (day 0) to end of study visit (day 180))
- Pain visual analog scale(from baseline (Day 0) to Day 5, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180)
- Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score(from baseline (Day 0) (post-exercise) to follow up visit Day 5, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and day 180 (post-exercise))
