Goal: To show the effects of short wave diathermy added on prolotherapy injections in osteoarthritis of the knee on pain, physical functioning and quality of life. Material and Methods: 63 patients with osteoarthritis of the knee with Kellgren-Lawrence (K-L) class 2 or 3 were included in the study. Patients were randomized to two grous, first being dextrose prolotherapy+ short wave diathermy(SWD), and second being dextrose prolotherapy with sham SWD. Patients were injected with dextrose prolotherapy solutions in the beginning, 3rd and 6th week of the study, for a total of 3 times, and took 20 minutes of SWD after injection(true or sham). Western Ontorio and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), Visual Analogous Scale for pain(VAS) and Short Form Health Survey (SF-36)were applied before, after(6th week) and at the 3rd month of treatment.
This phase 3 study is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of lorecivivint injected intra-articularly (IA) into the target knee (most painful) joint of moderately to severely symptomatic osteoarthritis (OA) subjects at a single dose of 0.07 mg lorecivivint per 2 mL injection. This study will utilize radiographs and patient reported outcomes (PROs) to evaluate the safety and efficacy of lorecivivint.
INTRODUCTION: The Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common type of joint disease, its features include joint space narrowing, osteophytes formation of the joint margins, motor deficit, reduced strength, and persistent pain. As a treatment option physiotherapy has several resources for the patient approach. However, the effect of treatment is not only the application of therapeutic techniques and resources but also to existing contextual factors such as the therapeutic alliance. OBJECTIVE: To assess the effects of an intervention with the focus on positive therapeutic alliance in subjects OA knee on pain and disability. METHODS: This is a randomized study of two arms with a blind evaluator. 40 subjects were randomized into 2 groups: group 1 "Kinesio Taping® KT" group 2 " Kinesio Taping® with therapeutic alliance KT+AT". Both groups received the application of Kinesio Taping® method as the concepts of the original method. The group "KT+AT" session was conducted in order to increase the relationship between the therapist and the patient.
Background: Obesity and degenerative joint disease are typically concomitant . Each are in the course of aerobic focus and excited inflammatory response. Exercise is taken into account a considerable treatment in rehabilitation of each conditions. nevertheless most of literature reported the good thing about regular exercise, whereas there's dearth regarding the consequence of base hit low to centrist usage session . Objective:Hence, this report aimed to analyze the attainable effects of a single bout of moderate excercise in obese patients with KOA. Methods:Thirty four rotund OA untrained semantic role and thirty age and sex matched healthy controls were registered during this sketch . OA patients were allotted to single session of low to moderate exercise on treadmill whereas controls remained unexercised. Perceived pain, GR activity, IL-6 , CRP, fasting blood glucose and lipid profile were assessed at baseline , once exercise and 24h after. Meanwhile, WOMAC score determined at baseline and once 24h.
