Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Change in self-reported pain intensity

    Measure of knee pain intensity with the Visual Analogue Scale (0-100mm), with higher scores reflecting higher perceived pain intensity

    Pre-exercise (pre), immediate post exercise (post), and 10 min after exercise (post 10min)

  • Change in pressure pain thresholds

    Measured with a mechanical algometer (Wagner Instruments, Greenwich, CT, USA) in three sites (vastus medialis of the affected limb, vastus medialis of the unaffected limb, and distal to the non-dominant arm lateral epicondyle)

    Pre-exercise (pre), immediate post exercise (post), and 10 min after exercise (post 10min)

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • WOMAC questionaire

    pre-exercise

  • Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK 11)

    pre-exercise

  • Chronic Pain Self-Efficacy Scale

  • Pain Catastrophizing Scale
