结局指标
主要结局
The Exercise Adherence Rate EARS-Ar
时间窗: * Baseline: week2 or session2 of the patient's exercise prescription. *Within one week of completion of the PT program. * Follow-up at week 8 after completion of the PT program.
The EARS-Ar survey will capture self-reported adherence levels to the prescribed home exercise program. The Exercise Adherence Rating Scale (EARS) is a six-item self-report measure that was developed to assess exercise adherence behavior. Each item is rated on a five-point Likert scale (0=completely agree to 4=completely disagree). Item scores are summed, and a higher total score denotes greater adherence (0-24). Three items (items 1, 4, and 6) with positive phrases are reversely scored. Its constructive validity and reliability have been established. The EArs was successfully cross-culturally adapted into Arabic following international guidelines. It has also demonstrated adequate accuracy and sensitivity to assess change in exercise adherence behavior. An EArs-Ar score of 12.5/24 could be used as a cutoff to indicate a patient's appropriate exercise adherence associated with improvement of symptoms.
次要结局
- Pain Level will be measured by the numeric pain rating scale (NPRS)(*At baseline, at week 1 * *Within one week of completion of the PT program. * Follow-up at week 8 after completion of the PT program.)
- The Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ)(* Baseline: Initial patient assessment *Within one week of completion of the PT program. * Follow-up at week 8 after completion of the PT program.)
- The Fear Avoidance Belief Questionnaire (FABQ)(* Baseline: Initial Patient Evaluation *Within one week of completion of the PT program. * Follow-up at week 8 after completion of the PT program.)
- The Knee Injury and OA Outcome Score (KOOS)(Baseline: at initial Patient evaluation *Within one week of completion of the PT program. * Follow-up at week 8 after completion of the PT program.)
- Quick DASH-Arabic(* Baseline: at initial assessment of the patient. *Within one week of completion of the PT program. * Follow-up at week 8 after completion of the PT program.)
