简要总结
Despite the past decade being dedicated to bone and joint disease, the incidence and prevalence rates of osteoarthritis continues to rise, and till date not curative treatment has been identified for the management of knee osteoarthritis. In terms of conservative management of knee osteoarthritis, pharmacological management has been the mainstay of treatment, however is associated with numerous adverse effects with prolonged use, and it is important to look into the non-pharmacological alternates for the management of knee osteoarthritis. Research has shown resistance exercise training to be the most effective non-pharmacological treatment option for the management of knee osteoarthritis, and the purpose of the current study is to determine if the addition of a non-pharmacological dietry supplement like creatine can amplify the beneficial effects of resistance exercise training in patients with knee osteoarthritis.

结局指标
主要结局
Knee Pain: Visual Analogue Scale
时间窗: 4 weeks
Visual Analogue Scale was used to measure pain scoring from 0-10 cm on a horizontal 10cm line. A greater score reflects higher pain intensity.
Knee Range of Motion
时间窗: 4 weeks
Knee Range of Motion will be quantified by using Gonimeter
Knee Isometric Muscle Strength
时间窗: 4 weeks
Knee Isometric Muscle Strength will be quantified by using Modified Sphygmomanometer Dynamometer
Six Minute Walk Test
时间窗: 4 weeks
Six Minute Walk Test will be used to quantify walking related performance fatigability, walking distance and walking speed.
5 repetition sit to stand test
时间窗: 4 weeks
Time will be measured to perform 5 repetitions of sit to stand activity. Lesser time means a better score.
次要结局
- Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS)(4 weeks)
- Body Composition(4 weeks)
- Fall Risk(4 weeks)
