Clinical Trial Summary

Although the effects of different exercise dosages for patients with osteoarthritis are compared in the literature, it is seen that studies on which exercise dosage is better are insufficient.The planned study has 2 main objectives:

- To examine the effects of different exercise dosages on exercise dependence

- To investigate the effect of different exercise dosages on pain and functional results


Clinical Trial Description

Knee osteoarthritis (KO) is the most common musculoskeletal problem worldwide, leading to pain and loss of locomotor function. The Framingham Osteoarthritis Study shows that 19% of adults have radiographic effects on the knee joint. Individuals with advanced symptomatic KO have difficulties in their daily life activities. Among all diseases, KO most affects activities such as walking, climbing stairs and housework. A wide range of physiotherapy treatment methods are available in KO treatment such as strengthening exercises, aquatic exercises, aerobic exercises, proprioception exercise, orthotics, taping methods and the use of electrophysiological agents. High-quality evidences suggests that land-based exercise therapy maintains its positive effect on pain, quality of life and functionality for 2-6 months after the treatment. The dosage of exercise therapy can be adjusted by the duration, frequency, or resistance of the exercise. However, evidence-based information on exercise dosage is limited in KO treatment. While KO is treated in physiotherapy clinics, it is also supported by home exercises during and after treatment. However, it is a clinical problem that patients show low adherence to home exercise. With this study, it is aimed to compare the exercise adherence of patients who are given home exercise with different exercise dosages and to show their functional results. Participants with KO aged between 40-85 years will be included in the study and randomly divided into two groups. The number of repetitions of the high dosage exercise group will be 2 times more than standard exercise group. Participants will be asked to apply home exercise programs 4 times a week. Exercise adherence, pain, kinesiophobia and functionality will be evaluated. Our study will be the first to demonstrate the effect of different home exercise dosages on exercise adherence. The information to be obtained with this study is thought to contribute to the preparation of a better home exercise program. With the information to be obtained through this study, it can contribute to the preparation of a better home exercise program.The planned study has 2 main objectives:

- To examine the effects of different exercise dosages on exercise dependence

- To investigate the effect of different exercise dosages on pain and functional results ;
