Assessing change within Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) |
A comprehensive analysis of patient function at level of activities of daily living as well as in sports participation. KOOS consists of 5 subscales: (1) Pain, (2) other Symptoms, (3) Function in daily living (ADL), (4) Function in sport and recreation (Sport/Rec) and (5) knee related Quality of life (QOL). |
assessing change at 4 time points; 1) baseline screening (week 0), 2) after 6 weeks, 3) post intervention after 13 weeks and 4) follow-up screening after 24 weeks. |
|
Secondary |
Assessing change within Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) |
The Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) will evaluate the patient's tendency towards pain catastrophizing and risk of developing chronic pain, and as such the quality of the patients psychosocial health status. |
4 times; 1) baseline screening (week 0), 2) after 6 weeks, 3) post intervention after 13 weeks and 4) follow-up screening after 24 weeks. |
|
Secondary |
Assessing change within thigh muscle strength |
objectified by means of Hand Held Dynamometry (HHD) assessment (maximal isometric muscle strength) of the quadriceps and hamstring muscle. Each muscle will be tested in a standardized fashion and sequence. The patient will be informed about the purpose and the content of each strength test, after which the investigator will demonstrate which muscle will be tested, the starting position that should be adopted as well as the specific location and direction at/in which the static resistance will be applied. Afterwards, the participants will be tested once at submaximal and twice at maximal level of isometric strength output, after which the best trial will be taken into account for data registration and processing. |
assessing change at 4 time points; 1) baseline screening (week 0), 2) after 6 weeks, 3) post intervention after 13 weeks and 4) follow-up screening after 24 weeks. |
|
Secondary |
Assessing change within Single leg Hop for Distance (SHD) |
unilateral jump and landing. Patient get 3 attempts on both sides |
assessing change at 4 time points; 1) baseline screening (week 0), 2) after 6 weeks, 3) post intervention after 13 weeks and 4) follow-up screening after 24 weeks. |
|
Secondary |
Assessing change within Knee Bent Test (KBT) |
unilateral knee flexion and extension (~unilateral squat) |
assessing change at 4 time points; 1) baseline screening (week 0), 2) after 6 weeks, 3) post intervention after 13 weeks and 4) follow-up screening after 24 weeks. |
|
Secondary |
Assessing change within 6 minute walk test (6MWT) |
walk as far as possible within 6 minutes. Patient is allowed to take a break during the test, although time keeps counting down. |
assessing change at 4 time points; 1) baseline screening (week 0), 2) after 6 weeks, 3) post intervention after 13 weeks and 4) follow-up screening after 24 weeks. |
|
Secondary |
Assessing change within 40m FPWT |
40m walking as fast as possible |
assessing change at 4 time points; 1) baseline screening (week 0), 2) after 6 weeks, 3) post intervention after 13 weeks and 4) follow-up screening after 24 weeks. |
|
Secondary |
Assessing change within chair stand test |
go from sit (on a chair) to stand as much as possible within 30 seconds |
assessing change at 4 time points; 1) baseline screening (week 0), 2) after 6 weeks, 3) post intervention after 13 weeks and 4) follow-up screening after 24 weeks. |
|
Secondary |
assessing change within stair climb test |
go 11 steps upwards and downwards on a stair as fast as possible (although safe) |
assessing change at 4 time points; 1) baseline screening (week 0), 2) after 6 weeks, 3) post intervention after 13 weeks and 4) follow-up screening after 24 weeks. |
|
Secondary |
Assessing change within International physical activity questionnaire (IPAQ) |
The purpose of the questionnaires is to provide common instruments that can be used to obtain internationally comparable data on health-related physical activity from the last 7 days |
assessing change every week, starting from baseline (Week 0) until the follow-up after 24 weeks. |
