Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC)

    Changes from base line WOMAC is a widely used self-administered health status measure used in assessing pain, stiffness, and function in patients with OA of hip and knee. It consists of 3 sections with the total score of 96

    8 week

  • 1 Repetition maximum (1 RM)

    Changes from base line 1 RM measure muscle strength with maximum amount of weight that a person can possibly lift for one repetition

    8 week

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Visual Analog Scale (VAS)

    8 week

  • Timed up and Go test (TUG)

    8 week

  • 6 minute walk test

    8 week

Study Arms (2)

Whole Body Vibration Technique

EXPERIMENTAL

WBV training with the frequency of 16-25 Hz along with conventional treatment.

Other: WBV technique

WBV Technique

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

WBV training with the frequency of 26-35 Hz along with conventional treatment.

Other: Whole body vibration technique

Interventions

Whole body vibration with frequency of 16-25 Hz were given from week 1-8 for 10 minutes/10 repetitions. Time were increased weekly Convention therapy were hot pack 10 minutes, stretching exercise (SLR) 10 repetition x 3 sets and quadriceps exercise 10 repetition x 3 sets. 3 session/week for 8 weeks

Whole Body Vibration Technique

Whole body vibration with frequency of 26-35 Hz were given from week 1-8 for 10 minutes/10 repetitions. Time were increased weekly Convention therapy were hot pack 10 minutes, stretching exercise (SLR) 10 repetition x 3 sets and quadriceps exercise 10 repetition x 3 sets. 3 session/week for 8 weeks
