Knee Osteoarthritis Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Use of Electroacupuncture (EA) to Affect Pain, Function and Quality of Life in Patients With End Stage Knee Osteoarthritis (KOA) on a Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) Waitlist
A 3-armed pilot randomized controlled trial: electroacupuncture, sham acupuncture and waitlist groups.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of EA as a treatment strategy in the end stage knee osteoarthritis (KOA) population waiting for total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The research objectives are to 1. To determine the efficacy of EA to provide pain relief, improve function and quality of life in the end stage KOA population who are waiting for TKA. 2. To determine if EA is superior to sham EA or waiting list groups in providing pain relief, improving function and quality of life in the end stage KOA population who are waiting for TKA. Outcome measures will be collected from all 3 groups at baseline, mid point, completion and 6 week follow up. Participants will be recruited from the Concordia Joint Replacement Group in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Inclusion Criteria: participants are on a waiting list for TKA and do not have a surgical date within 3 months from the start of the study.Waiting list will be defined as having had consultation with an orthopaedic surgeon and having accepted an offer a TKA. The participants will be a minimum of 45 years old and have a NPRS ≥ 5. Exclusion Criteria: knee pain caused by other disease or injury, arthroscopy within the past year, intra articular injection within the previous 3 months, painful ipsilateral hip OA.
