Abstract
Introduction-Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent degenerative joint disease that significantly impairs physical function and quality of life. Traditional treatment approaches include pharmacological interventions, physical therapy, and surgical options. However, there is growing interest in non-pharmacological interventions that can provide symptom relief and improve function with minimal side effects. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a combined treatment protocol involving Mobilization with Movement (MWM), strengthening exercises, and taping in patients with knee OA compared to conventional physiotherapy.
Objectives- The primary objective of this study was to determine the effectiveness of MWM combined with strengthening exercises and taping in improving pain, stiffness, and physical function in patients with knee OA. Secondary objectives included assessing the impact of these interventions on functional exercise capacity and exploring correlations between demographic characteristics and treatment outcomes.
Methods- This pre-test post-test experimental study involved 40 subjects diagnosed with knee OA, who were randomly assigned to either the experimental group (Group 1) or the control group (Group 2). Group 1 received the combined treatment protocol of MWM, strengthening exercises, and taping, while Group 2 received conventional physiotherapy. Outcome measures included the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and the 6-minute walk test. Baseline and post-intervention measurements were compared within and between groups to assess the effectiveness of the interventions.
Results- The study found that the mean WOMAC score in Group 1 significantly decreased from 59.80 to 49.65 post-intervention (p < 0.001), indicating substantial improvements in pain, stiffness, and physical function. In contrast, Group 2 showed a minimal reduction in WOMAC scores from 61.95 to 60.55 (p = 0.098), which was not statistically significant. Similarly, the mean distance covered in the 6-minute walk test for Group 1 increased significantly from 416.75 meters to 456.05 meters (p < 0.001), while Group 2 showed a modest increase from 415.60 meters to 426.65 meters (p = 0.006).
Conclusion- The combined treatment protocol of MWM, strengthening exercises, and taping significantly improved symptoms and functional outcomes in patients with knee OA compared to conventional physiotherapy. These findings suggest that incorporating these interventions into treatment protocols can provide substantial benefits to patients with knee OA. Further research with larger sample sizes and longer follow-up periods is recommended to confirm these findings and explore the long-term effects of the intervention.
