简要总结
Lower limb strengthening, especially the quadriceps training, is of much necessity for patients with knee arthroplasty. As the quadriceps strengthening exercises play a vital role in controlling gait pattern during walking and different activities. Vastus inetrmedius muscle responsible for the last 10 degree of knee extension. This enable the knee joint to be in locked position which is the stable position during gait.

VAS is a straight horizontal line of usually 100 mm. The ends are defined as the extreme limits of the pain . It is orientated from the left (worst) to the right (least) pain.
Quadriceps Muscle Strength
时间窗: 4 weeks
it will be measured using a hand held dynamometer.
次要结局
- Range of Motion (ROM)(4 weeks)
- Oxford Knee Score (OKS)(4 weeks)
