Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate the comparative effects of hold relax technique and mulligan mobilization on pain, ROM and function in post operative knee joint.

Conditions

Post Operative Pain

Keywords

mulligan mobilization with movement; post-operative knee joint; hold relax technique; knee stiffness; range of motion

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• Numeric Pain Rating scale

  The most common validated tool for assessment of pain in clinical tests is the numeric pain rating score (NPRS), a 10-point scale where 0 indicates no pain and 10 indicates severe pain

  3 months

• Goniometer for Range of motion

  It is a technique in which instrument named as goniometer purports to measure accurately the movements present in a simple or composite joint. Actually a goniometer is not used so much to measure the exact number of degrees of the movement in the joint as to find out whether there is increase or decrease of such movements. In order to do this, it is desirable that a goniometer should provide an easy method of reference to the joint or joint being examined and also provide a fixed base line point from which to measure any increase or decrease of movement

  3 months

• Time up and go test for functional ability

  The test consists of measuring the time it takes for an individual to get up from the chair and walk as fast as possible to a 3-meter walk, turn around, come back and sit down. Time taken to complete the test were measured on stopwatch to the nearest 1/100 of the second

Study Arms (2)

Mulligan Mobilization with movement

EXPERIMENTAL

Mulligan Mobilization with movement + Baseline treatment (Moist Heat Pack) Group will receive mulligan mobilization with movement with the frequency of 3 sets and 10 repetitions 3 times a week for 6 weeks.

Other: Mulligan Mobilization

Hold relax technique

EXPERIMENTAL

Hold relax technique + Baseline treatment (Moist Heat Pack) Group will receive Hold Relax Technique of PNF included, 5 repetitions will be given 3 times/week for 6 weeks.

Other: Hold Relax

Interventions

Mulligan Mobilization OTHER

Medial glide MWM for knee flexion (supine) Lateral glide MWM for knee flexion (supine) Medial glide MWM for knee flexion.( prone ) Lateral glide MWM for knee flexion (prone)

Mulligan Mobilization with movement

Hold Relax OTHER

Hold-relax technique of PNF included, the affected knee will be flexed passively to the end of range with the therapist's hand on the patient's lower leg. Patients then performed 5 s of quadriceps contraction against the resistance of the therapist. Patients will be asked not to let move. At the end of 5 s, the patients will be asked to totally relax for 10 s and the therapist pushed the knee into more flexion and hold at that newly acquired range

Hold relax technique
