Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Pain Level Assessment

    Change in pain associated with osteoarthritis of the knee during all visits (#1-13). Pain will be assessed with NRS (numeric rating scale) where 0 is no pain and 10 is worst possible pain.

    12 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Changes in mobility

    12 weeks

  • Changes in patient-relevant outcomes

    12 weeks

  • Changes in brief pain inventory

    12 weeks

  • Changes in the use of pain medication

    12 weeks

Study Arms (1)

Experimental: BEST™ Pro-Sport Ultra® microcurrent device

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will receive 2 treatments a week on nonconsecutive days for 6 weeks in the clinic with an active electrical stimulation device.

Device: BEST™ HVPC microcurrent electrical stimulation Pro-Sport Ultra® device

Interventions

Participants will receive two (2) 20-minute treatments a week on nonconsecutive days for 6 weeks in the clinic. At the end of 6 weeks, participants will have a 6-week pause in treatment.
