Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this thesis; To define sarcopenia in knee osteoarthritis with ultrasonography and to evaluate changes in muscle structure in sarcopenia after isokinetic exercise application ultrasonographically. The investigators will evaluate the effect of isokinetic exercise therapy in sarcopenic patients with knee osteoarthritis with VAS (Visual Analog Scale) and WOMAC (Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index). Then, the hand grip strength will be evaluated with a dynamometer, and its effects on physical performance will be evaluated by 6 meters walking and chair rising tests.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Among the 45-65 age group who applied to Mustafa Kemal University Faculty of Medicine, Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation outpatient clinic, 30 female patients diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis (stage 1-2-3) and sarcopenia together, and 30 individuals without osteoarthritis and sarcopenia will be included in the study as the control group.Patients with knee osteoarthritis who have been diagnosed with sarcopenia by ultrasonography will be Group I, and the control group without osteoarthritis and sarcopenia will be Group II.30 patients in Group I will be given an exercise program with isokinetic dynamometer for both knees, 30 minutes of TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation), 20 minutes of hot packs, and home exercise program will be given lower extremity strengthening for a total of 6 weeks (18 sessions), 3 sessions per week.A diet program (protein, mineral, vitamin D supplemented) will also be given to these patients. The control group, which is group II, will be offered a home exercise program and diet for lower extremity strengthening only.Those with a history of complicated Diabetes Mellitus, Severe Coronary Artery Disease / Congestive Heart Failure, severe Liver Failure, neuromuscular disease, previous lower extremity surgery, rheumatological disease, use of walking aids will not be included in the study.The patient group and control group pre-treatment (week 0) and post-treatment (week 6) clinical; hand grip strength will be evaluated with Jamar dynamometer, walking speed will be evaluated with 6 meters walking test, lower extremity endurance will be evaluated with chair rise test, functional assessment of knee osteoarthritis will be evaluated by WOMAC (Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index) and pain assessment will be evaluated by VAS (Visual Analogue scale) will be evaluated with a pain questionnaire.In addition, changes in the Rectus Femoris and Vastus Lateralis muscle architecture on the dominant side of the patients; muscle thickness, fascicle length, echogenicity, pennation angle and cross-sectional area measurements will be evaluated before treatment (0 weeks) and after treatment (6 weeks) by ultrasonography.
