简要总结
the aim of the study is to investigate the effect of deep front line myofascial release to selected exercises in patients with knee osteoarthritis
详细描述
: Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) also known as degenerative joint disease, is typically the result of wear and tear and progressive loss of articular cartilage.
The myofascial meridian is a new approach to the facial restriction .the knee capsules, the adductor muscles and the tipialis posterior are part of the deep front line which is a line of the myofascial meridian.
Exercise is the highest evidence in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis. The myofascial release is effective in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis so the study will investigate the effect of adding deep front line myofascial release to selected exercises in patients with knee osteoarthritis.

rang of motion
时间窗: up to four weeks
using digital inclinometer
pain intensity
时间窗: up to four weeks
The scale that will be used the visual analogue scale;each subject will instructed to record pain intensity on line of 100mm. Starting from no pain on the leftto the most sever pain imaginable on the right Patient will choose the point which describe his pain.the more the score toward the end the more severe pain
function
时间窗: up to four weeks
The Arabic version of reduced Western Ontario and McMasters University Osteoarthritis Index (ArWOMAC) index will be used to measure functional disability.is a self-administered questionnaire consisting of 24 items divided into 3 subscales: * Pain (5 items): During walking, using stairs, in bed, sitting or lying, and standing upright * Stiffness (2 items): After first waking and later in the day Physical Function (17 items).The scores for each subscale are summed up, with a possible score range of 0-20 for Pain, 0-8 for Stiffness, and 0-68 for Physical Function.Higher scores on the WOMAC indicate worse pain, stiffness, and functional limitations
