About this study

Official title: Effects of Sensory Motor Training Versus Kinesthetic Exercises on Pain, Range of Motion, Proprioception and Quality of Life in Knee Osteoarthritis .

In this study i will see the effects of kinesthetic exercises and sensory motor training on pain and range of motion in patients with knee OA.

Read the detailed description

In 2022 a A Pilot Randomized Trial of Different Weekly Applications of Kinesthesia, Balance and Agility Exercise Program for Individuals with Knee Osteoarthritis was conducted.In 2023 A critically appraised research was conducted on Sensorimotor or Balance Training to Increase Knee-Extensor and Knee-Flexor Maximal Strength in Patients With Knee Osteoarthritis.

In past there is no study that compares the effects of SMT and kinesthetic exercises in knee OA.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • sensory motor trainingOther

    Also called conventional therapy

    in this group 17 participants will receive conventional therapy and then followed by kinesthetic exercises. 3 sessions per week includes 10 repetitions with 3sets.

Study groups in NCT06339944
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
sensory motor training along with conventional therapy.ExperimentalThis group will receive sensory motor training exercises after the conventional therapy. The participants who will be allocated to the SMT group received the same warm-up and stretching program as the CT group, with the same duration and frequency of treatment, but with replacement of the strengthening program with a program emphasizing agility, coordination and balance.
Receives: Other: sensory motor training
kinesthetic exercises along with conventional therapy.Active comparatorGroup will receive kinesthetic balance exercises after the conventional therapy. All agility-based exercises will be conducted before progressing to balance exercises. For the balance exercises, the participants performed static and dynamic balance exercises with eyes open and then closed by standing on a hard surface and then standing on a soft surface.
Receives: Other: kinesthetic exercises

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. VAS

    The visual analog scale for pain is a straight line with one end meaning no pain and the other end meaning the worst pain imaginable. A patient marks a point on the line that matches the amount of pain he or she feels.

    Measured: 6th week

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. goniometer

    a device that measures an angle or permits the rotation of an object to a definite position

    Measured: 6th week

  2. WOMAC questionaire

    Western Ontario and McMaster Universities (WOMAC) Osteoarthritis index is a multidimensional self-reported disease-specific questionnaire that assesses pain, stiffness and physical disability in patients with Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee joint. The Swedish version of WOMAC is a reliable, valid, and responsive instrument with metric properties in agreement with the original widely used version.(16

    Measured: 6th week

  3. joint position sense test

    Joint position sense is one of the most commonly used measures of proprioception.

    Determining JPS involves measuring the accuracy of joint-angle The joint position reproduction test for JPS using goniometry demonstrated moderate to good test-retest reliability and acceptable measurement error in healthy adults.replication,which can be conducted actively or passively and in an open or closed chain environment.

    Measured: 6th week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing sensory motor training and kinesthetic exercises in people with Knee Osteoarthritis, run by Riphah International University at 1 site in Pakistan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Pakistan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

VAS (time frame: 6th week). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06339944, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
