Effect of NMES as an Add-On to Exercise Program in Degenerative Meniscus Tears

Meniscus Tear Clinical Trial

Official title:
Effect of NMES as an Add-On to Exercise Program in Degenerative Meniscus Tears: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Clinical Trial Summary

This randomized-controlled trial aims to investigate the effect of NMES as an add-on to an exercise program in patients with degenerative meniscus tears.

Clinical Trial Description

To investigate the efficacy of NMES as an add-on to an exercise program, voluntary patients with degenerative meniscus tears, aged between 40 and 65 years, will be randomly divided into two groups: Group 1 (NMES with Exercise) and Group 2 (Exercise). Interventions will be applied for 16 sessions (twice a week for 8 weeks). The patients will be assessed at baseline and at the end of the 8-week intervention. The pain during activity, at rest, and at night will be assessed with the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Active range of motion will be assessed with a digital goniometer. Isometric muscle strength will be measured with a handheld dynamometer. The functional status and symptoms will be evaluated by the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) and Lysholm Knee Scoring Scale. Health-related quality of life will be assessed with the Short Form-12 (SF-12). ;
