简要总结
The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to determine the effects of ITB myofascial release with graston technique on symptoms associated with knee Osteoarthritis for reducing pain, enhancing knee range of motion and decrease functional disability.
详细描述
Graston technique, Instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) also known as myofascial release technique is a skilled myofascial intervention used for soft-tissue treatment. Graston is a myofascial release tool that decreases adhesions, trigger points and tension in muscles.

The WOMAC is a reliable , valid, and responsive instrument for evaluating the severity of OA of the knee, with metric properties. The WOMAC measures 5 items for pain (score range 0-20), 2 for stiffness (score range 0-8), and 17 for functional limitation (score range 0-68),
Goniometer
时间窗: 4 WEEKS
It is an instrument that measures the available range of motion at a joint.
Numeric Pain Rating Scale
时间窗: 4 WEEKS
The NPRS is a segmented numeric version of the visual analog scale (VAS) in which a respondent selects a whole number (0-10 integers) that best reflects the intensity of his/her pain
