Abstract Abstract
Background: Knee osteoarthritis (OA), also known as degenerative joint disease of the knee, is a common condition where the cartilage in the knee joint breaks down, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. OA is the most common disease of the joints worldwide, with the knee being the most commonly affected joint in the body. It mainly affects people over the age of 45. OA can lead to pain and loss of function, but not everyone with radiographic findings of knee OA will be symptomatic: in one study only 15% of patients with radiographic findings of knee OA were symptomatic.
Aims: The aim of study is to investigate the effectiveness of physiotherapy treatment in osteoarthritis of knee and compare the clinical based supervised physiotherapy and home exercise programme.
Setting: The comparative study was conducted on patients of age group 45-75 years in a private clinical setup.
Design: The study was conducted on 40 patients both male and female. The patients were randomly selected. The evaluation of pain and disability was assessed by using WOMAC scale and 6minute walk test. Statistical analysis was done on the basis of data obtained during intervention and results were obtained.
Conclusion: The study highlights that the clinical based supervised physiotherapy is an effective conservative treatment protocol to cope with severity of osteoarthritis of the knee.
