简要总结
This study will examine feasibility of implementing Good Life with Osteoarthritis in Denmark (GLA:D) program in West Virginians with osteoarthritis of the knee
详细描述
Using West Virginia (WV) as an implementation site, this study will examine the feasibility of process implementation and effectiveness of the Good Life with Osteoarthritis in Denmark (GLA:D) program in individuals with osteoarthritis of the knee (KOA). Specifically, the study will examine the feasibility and acceptability of the GLA:D program in individuals with KOA. This study will also assess the magnitude of changes in self-reported knee pain and functional impairments as well as physical performance in individuals who receive GLA:D compared to those who receive control interventions consisting of disease-specific education and exercises for KOA.

研究组 & 干预措施
Good Life with Osteoarthritis (GLA:D) Program
Participants will attend 2 sessions aimed at providing disease-specific education followed by 12 sessions of neuromuscular exercises, each 1 hour in length, delivered twice a week over 6 weeks.
干预措施: GLA:D program (Good Life with osteoArthritis in Denmark) (Other)
Control intervention group
Participants allocated to the control intervention will receive disease-specific education and training to learn home exercises in a 1-hour group session. They will receive a booster session 4-weeks after the first session.
干预措施: GLA:D program (Good Life with osteoArthritis in Denmark) (Other)
结局指标
主要结局
Change in Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS4) scores from baseline to 12-weeks later
时间窗: 12-weeks
The KOOS4 is a variant of full length KOOS that has all subscales of full length KOOS (pain, symptoms, ADL, and QOL) except sports and recreation activities subscale. There are 9 items in the pain subscale, 7 items in the symptom subscale, 17 items in the ADL subscale, and 4 items in the QOL subscale. The items across these subscales are scored on the scale of 0 to 4 where 0 indicates no problem and 4 indicates an extreme problem. Each subscale has sufficient stability and dimensionality, and therefore the score for each subscale is calculated independently on 0-100 interval with 0 indicating an extreme problem and 100 indicating no problems.
