The Effect Of Pulsed Electromagnetic Field And Progressive Resistance Exercise On Knee Osteoarthritis
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Pulsed electromagnetic field and Progressives resistance exercise and PRE for Knee Osteoarthritis. Completed, enrolled 32 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of pulsed electromagnetic field and progressive resistance exercise on Knee Osteoarthritis. It is experimental research study that look at the additive effect of pulsed electromagnetic field and progressive resistive exercise on pain level, patient-reported and performance-based physical function and Quality of life for patients with knee osteoarthritis
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
The pulsed electromagnetic field treatment consist of 30 minutes pulsed electromagnetic field with 50 Hz pulses The progressive resistance exercise training consist of 45 minutes of progressive resistance exercise protocol as the following: The PRE session begun with warm-up exercises that included riding a stationary ergometer for 5 minutes followed by stretching exercises for the hamstrings, quadriceps and gastrocnemius muscles. After this, subjects performed non-weight bearing (open chain) and weight bearing (closed chain) quadriceps exercises. The amount of resistance and number of repetitions for each exercise are based on a modification of the daily adjustable progressive resistance exercise (DAPRE) program that was described by Knight eta al.
