Clinical Trial Summary

Evaluation of the Efficiency of Propioceptive Study According to Radiological Stages in Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis

Description:

Investigators divided patients with knee osteoarthritis into two groups. Group 1 consisted of stage 1 and stage 2 patients. Group 2 consisted of stage 3 and stage 4 patients. Proprioceptive training was applied in both groups. Investigators aim is to evaluate the effect of proprioceptive exercises on knee osteoarthritis according to the radiological level.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Proprioception Sense	The sense of proprioception will be measured using a digital goniometer. It will be repeated 3 times. The average will be recorded	Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks
Secondary	The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC)	The scale consists of 3 main headings and 24 questions. It is scored between 0 and 100. There is a negative correlation between scoring and functionality.	Evaluation will be performed before treatment and after 4 weeks rehabilitation program.
Secondary	Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)	The levels of pain is felted at rest / activity / night will be measured using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)..Patients will be asked to evaluate their pain status with a 10-point scale and high scores are positively correlated with pain	Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks
Secondary	Pressure Pain Threshold Measurement	A digital algometer will be used for Pressure Pain Threshold Measurement. Digital algometer is a device that objectively evaluates the pressure pain threshold. Low values indicate increased sensitivity and pain sensation.	Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks
Secondary	Range of Motion (ROM)	Knee,food and hip ROM will be evaluated with digital goniometer while the patient will be in supine and prone position.	Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks
Secondary	Timed Up and Go Test (TUG)	The scale consists of 7 questions measuring the physical activity of the individual in the last 7 days. The activity level is determined according to the scale score.	Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks
Secondary	Manual Muscle Test	Manual Muscle Test is a procedure for the evaluation of strength of individual muscle or muscles group, based upon the effective performance of a movement in relation to the forces of gravity or manual resistance through the available ROM.	Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks
Secondary	Short Form 36 (SF-36)	SF-36 will be used to assess physical and mental health-related quality of life. The total score is at least 0 and at most 100, and the high scores are positively correlated with high quality of life.	Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks
Secondary	Global Rating of Change (GRC) Scale	Global Rating of Change (GRC) scale will be used to assess the overall satisfaction levels of the patients. Patients will be asked to evaluate their post-treatment status with a 5-point likert scale and high scores are positively correlated with satisfaction.	4 weeks
Secondary	International Physical Activity Scale (IPAQ)	The scale consists of 7 questions measuring the physical activity of the individual in the last 7 days. The activity level is determined according to the scale score.	Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks
