The Effect Of Pulsed Electromagnetic Field And Progressive Resistance

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of pulsed electromagnetic field and progressive resistance exercise on Knee Osteoarthritis. It is experimental research study that look at the additive effect of pulsed electromagnetic field and progressive resistive exercise on pain level, patient-reported and performance-based physical function and Quality of life for patients with knee osteoarthritis

Clinical Trial Description

Background: osteoarthritis is the main cause of disability in elderly population.[1,2] It affects almost one third of individuals aged 65 and older and approximately 25% of osteoarthritis patients 60 years and older cannot perform activities of daily living.[3] The clinical symptoms that lead to disability in Knee osteoarthritis are more frequent than all other joint complaint. A large body of evidence exists proving the beneficial effects of progressive resistance exercise (PRE) in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).[4,5,6] Pulse electromagnetic field(PEMF) is a physical therapy modality that could be used for treating knee osteoarthritis (OA) and there emerging evidence suggesting its beneficial effect in reducing pain and improving function for knee osteoarthritis (OA)[7] The purpose of the study is to examine the effectiveness of using pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) with progressive resistance exercise (PRE) training in decreasing pain level ,improving physical function, and improving quality of life in patients with Knee osteoarthritis (OA) A small randomized control trial conducted to recruit 32 patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). Participants with knee osteoarthritis (OA) as defined by American College of Rheumatology recruited from Prince Basma Educational Hospital. Eligible patients were randomly assigned to receive 24 sessions (3 sessions/week for 8 weeks) of either the combined (PRE and PEMF) treatment or PRE only. Participants will be evaluated at baseline, after the end of treatment protocol (8 weeks), and at 3 and 6 months follow up. Mixed ANOVA and repeated measure ANOVA will be used to evaluate the differences between groups in pain, and physical function, and quality of life ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
