简要总结
This study aims to determine the factors affecting pain in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). This study will be carried out following the "Helsinki Declaration", by selecting 106 volunteers who were diagnosed with knee OA, who applied to the Department of Orthopedics between February 2022 and August 2023 and met the inclusion criteria.
Before the evaluation, all the volunteers participating in the study will be informed about the purpose of the study, its duration, and the evaluations to be made. Consent will be obtained from all volunteers participating in the study with an "Informed Voluntary Consent Form". Demographic and clinical characteristics of all patients who voluntarily accepted to participate in the study will be questioned with the "Knee Osteoarthritis Evaluation Form". Quality of life, pain, range of motion (ROM), muscle strength, presence of comorbidity, and functional evaluation will be recorded on the form.
详细描述
Inclusion criteria:
- Volunteer participants who meet the clinical criteria for diagnosis of OA of the knee according to the American College of Rheumatology criteria will be included
Exclusion criteria:
- Diagnosis of neurologic disease, rheumatoid arthritis, radiculopathy or peripheral neuropathy, psychiatric disease
- History of knee surgery or intraarticular corticosteroid injection within the past 6 months
- Use of oral or topical analgesics for knee pain within the previous 6 months
- Receiving any physical therapy intervention on the lower limbs in the previous 6 months,
- Inability to read and write in Turkish
- Inability to follow simple instructions
- Having a pathology in visual ability and hearing
Assessments: Pain by Visual Analog Scale (VAS), ROM by digital goniometer, muscle strength by "Hand-held" dynamometer (Lafeyette Instrument®, Lafayette, IN), presence of comorbidity by Charlson Comorbidity Index, functional status WOMAC (Western Ontario and McMaster Universities) index, and quality of life will be evaluated with Short Form-12 (SF-12).

Pain Severity
时间窗: Baseline
The pain severity will be assessed with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), which is a numerical pain rating scale with zero corresponding to no pain and 10 corresponding to terrible pain.
