Brief Summary

The objective of the study was to compare the effects of active release technique and bent leg raise on hamstring flexibility, functional outcomes, and pain in patients with knee osteoarthritis.

Conditions

Knee Osteoarthritis

Keywords

Active Release Technique; Bent leg raise; Hamstring flexibility

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Hamstring flexibility

  Changes from baseline, Hamstring flexibility was measured through passive knee extension test with the help of Goniometer. Normal value of knee extension angle is 180 degrees. Values decreased than 160 degree represents hamstring tightness.

  12 days

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• Functional outcome

  12 days

• Pain on Visual analogue Scale
