• 1 other identifier: Tubitak diz OA
• Study Type: interventional
• Target: 52
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

The aim of our study is to realize an exercise training and follow-up system that individuals with knee OA can easily adapt.

Conditions

Telerehabilitation; Osteoarthritis, Knee

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• Visual Analog Scale (VAS)

  On a 0 cm straight line or numeric scale, the patient is asked to mark the pain they feel (0: no pain, 10: excruciating pain).

  Change from Baseline VAS at 8 weeks

• The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC)

  WOMAC consists of 3 main headings: pain intensity, stiffness and physical function. The total score ranges from 0 (no disability) to 96 (complete disability).

  Change from Baseline WOMAC at 8 weeks

• Satisfaction and expectation assessment

  On a 0 cm straight line or numeric scale, the patient will be asked to mark their pre-treatment expectation and post-treatment satisfaction level. 0 will represent the lowest expectation and satisfaction and 10 the highest expectation or satisfaction.

  Change from Baseline Satisfaction and expectation assessment at 8 weeks

Interventions

Telerehabilitation OTHER

Home exercises will be delivered through a video mobile application. In this application, exercises for knee osteoarthritis will be presented according to their types (stretching, strengthening, etc.). Videos deemed appropriate by the physiotherapist will be added to the exercise prescription and sent to the patients via message. Patients will have the opportunity to remotely access their own exercise prescription with visual, auditory and written commands. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
