Brief Summary

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

This study explores the effectiveness of a novel treatment approach for knee osteoarthritis (OA) by comparing the combined use of a new device, "Knee Sync Partner," which provides electrical knee traction with stimulation and strengthening exercises, to traditional strengthening exercises alone. Knee osteoarthritis is a leading cause of chronic pain and disability worldwide, significantly impacting the quality of life for many individuals, especially with the growing elderly population.

Detailed Description

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

While strengthening exercises are a well-established treatment for improving joint stability and mobility in knee OA patients, the potential benefits of integrating electrical stimulation and traction therapy remain underexplored. This research addresses the gap by conducting a randomized controlled trial to assess whether this combined approach leads to superior outcomes in terms of pain relief, functional improvement, and joint health. The findings could provide valuable insights into more effective, non-invasive management strategies for knee OA, expanding therapeutic options in physical therapy.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Exp Group

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Exp

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Participants in this group will receive treatment using the Knee Sync Partner, a novel portable device designed to provide electrical traction and stimulation specifically for the knee joint.

controlled mechanical traction to the knee joint to reduce joint contact pressure, enhance synovial fluid flow, and increase joint space. This is expected to alleviate pain and improve mobility.

Control Group

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

control

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

This will include a combination of isometric and isotonic exercises aimed at strengthening the knee musculature, enhancing joint stability, and reducing pain. The exercise regimen will focus on major muscle groups supporting the knee, such as the quadriceps, hamstrings, and calf muscles.
