Filter by:This is a cluster randomized controlled trial to to evaluate the individual and health system impacts of implementing a new physiotherapist-led primary care model for hip and knee pain in Canada.
The study will be Randomized controlled trail, Subject diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis meeting predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria will be divided into two groups. Pre assessment will be done using pain, ROM, function, foot arches and knee alignment as subjective measurement through KOOS questionnaire, goniometer, 2D frontal plane projection, Berkemann foot prints using ink and paper ,30s chair stand test, nine step stair climb,40m fast paced walk test,Global rating of change score respectively . One group will be treated with hip abductor strengthening exercise along with conventional exercises and second group will be treated with intrinsic foot muscle strengthening exercise along with conventional exercises. Post treatment values recorded after the session.After data collection from defined study setting,data will be entered and analyzed at Riphah International University,Lahore
In this study i will see the effects of kinesthetic exercises and sensory motor training on pain and range of motion in patients with knee OA.
Kinesiophobia after total knee arthroplasty is an important parameter affecting recovery. However, the relationship between kinesiophobia and the factors it may cause is not clear. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the relationship between kinesiophobia, pain, fear of falling, mobility and proprioception in the early period after total knee arthroplasty.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of adding hip device-assisted concentric abductor strengthening (HDACAS) program to knee device-assisted concentric flexor-extensor strengthening (KDACFES) program on pain, function, physical performance, quality of life and gait parameters in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).
This study is a randomized controlled trial to assess whether the implementation of a TKA Personalized Outcome Prediction Tool to set expectation, in addition to targeted interventions to address patients with poor baseline mental health and poor physical function, improves satisfaction at 1-year (when compared to standard of care).
The goal of this multi-center randomized controlled trial is to investigate the effect of pre-operative exercise therapy and education for patients awaiting knee replacement surgery on subjective knee function, patient satisfaction and enablement compared to standard care. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does pre-operative exercise therapy and education lead to better subjective knee function compared to standard care one year after surgery? - Does pre-operative exercise therapy and education lead to a higher level of patient satisfaction compared to standard care one year after surgery? - Does pre-operative exercise therapy and education lead to better patient enablement compared to standard care six weeks after surgery? - Does pre-operative exercise therapy and education lead to better objective knee function compared to standard care six weeks after surgery? Participants will be randomized stratified by age (≤ 67 years, > 67 years) to either pre-operative supervised individualized exercise therapy combined with education two sessions/week (intervention group) or to standard care (control group). The intervention will be continuously ongoing for at least eight weeks from the point of decision for surgery until as close to the surgery as possible.
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the clinical effectiveness of a Chronic Care Model (CCM) named Risk Assessment and Management Program on Knee OA (RAMP-Knee OA) in adults with knee Osteoarthritis (Knee OA) at 52 weeks. Participants will be screened for eligibility to participate. After confirming eligibility, participants will complete the baseline assessment and be randomized into one of the following groups (n=114 for each group): 1. RAMP Knee-OA group 2. Usual care group Outcomes will be measured at baseline, week 16, week 32, and week 52.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease characterized by unsuccessful repair of joint damage resulting from stresses in any of the synovial joint tissues. Symptoms include pain (initially only after movement), joint stiffness, limitation of joint movement, feeling of insecurity in the joint, and difficulty walking. The diagnosis of knee osteoarthritis can be easily made with a detailed history and a comprehensive physical examination. Radiographic examinations are used to support clinical findings and exclude other possible pathologies. The main purpose of treating knee osteoarthritis is to reduce pain and make daily life easier. Since there is no standard treatment method, the patient's treatment must be individualized by taking into account age, comorbidity, severity of the clinical picture, patient preferences and cost of treatment. Conservative treatment includes pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment, and the optimal treatment should be applied as a combination of these two methods. Patient education, lifestyle modification, exercise, different physical therapy modalities (TENS, Interferential current, ESWT...), acupuncture are some non-pharmacological methods. Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT), which is considered within the scope of conservative treatment, started in the seventies with the practice of breaking ureteric stones and has become one of the physical therapy modalities used in the treatment of various musculoskeletal diseases. Considering the historical development of ESWT, it has started to be used as a therapeutic modality in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis in recent years. The process, which started with animal experiments, continued with human studies, and evidence is presented that ESWT reduces knee pain and contributes to functionality. It is noteworthy that there are few studies and their short follow-up periods. In the light of these studies, it was planned to investigate the effectiveness of ESWT treatment, which will be applied together with exercise, on pain, functionality and walking distance in individuals diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis, in comparison with the control group receiving sham ESWT.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare Robotic Assisted, functionally aligned vs Custom Made Total Knee Arthroplasty in patients with knee osteoarthritis. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Which implant/philosophy yields better clinical outcomes? - Which implant/philosophy yields better satisfaction? - Which system is more OR efficient? Participants will be followed for 2 years postoperatively.
