Brief Summary

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

This study assessed and compared the effects of clinic-based and telemonitored home-based interventions on pain intensity, function and quality of life in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA). This was with a view to providing evidence for the validation of the effectiveness of home-based intervention on knee osteoarthritis

Detailed Description

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

This study was a quasi-experiment involving forty two patients with KOA. They were randomly allocated into two groups equally; clinic-based group (CBG) and telemonitored home-based group (THG).

The CBG received exercises to strengthen the quadriceps and hamstring muscles using thera band while THG received same treatment regimen but at home and were monitored on phone by the researcher. The subjects performed four sets of eight repetitions for each of the exercises three days in a week for eight weeks. Pain intensity was assessed with Quadruple Visual Analog Scale, function was assessed with the Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index and quality of life was assessed with WHO Quality of Life-BREF at pretreatment, 3rd week, 6th week and 8th week of intervention. Data was analysed with descriptive and inferential statistics. Repeated measure ANOVA was used to compare the mean value of variables within the group and between the groups. Alpha level was set at 0.05.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

There were two groups, one with clinical based and the other with telemonitored home based. The two groups received thera band exercises of isometric contractions. The clinical based at the hospital, and the home based at home but being monitored by researcher with phone call.

Clinical Based Isometric contraction strengthening Exercises using Thera band" CBG

Participants underwent strengthening exercises to the quadriceps and harmstring using thera band at the hospital. The band was attached around the ankle for strengthening of the quadriceps and hamstring muscles using isometric muscle contraction using a standard protocol. The patient performed four sets of eight repetitions for each of the exercises.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Clinical Based Isometric contraction strengthening Exercises using Thera band

Intervention Type OTHER

Patients did isometric contraction exercises using thera band in the clinic physically. They did not need to be monitored by telephone

Telemonitored Home based Isometric Cntraction strengthening exercises using Thera band

Intervention Type OTHER

Patients did isometric contraction exercises using thera band at home, they were monitored by telephone three times in a week for 8 weeks

Telemonitored Home based Isometric Contraction strengthening exercises using Thera band" THB

Participants underwent strengthening exercises to the quadriceps and harmstrings with thera band but doing the intervention at home but monitored with telephone call. The band was attached around the ankle for strengthening of the quadriceps and hamstring muscles using isometric muscle contraction using a standard protocol. The patient performed four sets of eight repetitions for each of the exercises.
