Brief Summary

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

Lower limb strengthening, especially the quadriceps training, is of much necessity for patients with knee arthroplasty. As the quadriceps strengthening exercises play a vital role in controlling gait pattern during walking and different activities. Vastus inetrmedius muscle responsible for the last 10 degree of knee extension. This enable the knee joint to be in locked position which is the stable position during gait.

Quadriceps Set & Terminal Knee Extension Exercises Group (Study Group)

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Quadriceps Set Exercise

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Quadriceps knee set exercises was introduced with the patient in sitting position and pillow was placed under his knee joint then ask patient to dorsiflex his ankle and extend knee make hold 10 second then relax. Two exercises session per week for four week.

Terminal Knee Extension

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Terminal knee extension exercise using Thera band was introduced with the patient in sitting or standing position and the theraband was placed around his knee joint. Two exercises session per week for four week.

Traditional Physical Therapy

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Traditional physical therapy program will include passive stretching exercise to the hamstrings while the patient is supine lying flex the hip while the knee extended and hold for 30-45 seconds, strengthening exercise to the guadriceps muscle by extending the knee whie the patient is in the sitting position.

Traditional Physical Therapy Group (Control Group)

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Traditional Physical Therapy

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Traditional physical therapy program will include passive stretching exercise to the hamstrings while the patient is supine lying flex the hip while the knee extended and hold for 30-45 seconds, strengthening exercise to the guadriceps muscle by extending the knee whie the patient is in the sitting position.
