description | Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a prevalent joint condition associated with aging that causes pain, disability, loss of function, and a decline in quality of life. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of home-based conventional exercise and cryotherapy on daily living activities in patients with KOA. METHODS: In this randomized controlled clinical trial, the patients who were diagnosed with KOA were assigned to 3 groups: an experimental group (n = 18), the control group 1 (n = 16), and the control group 2 (n = 15). Control and experimental groups engaged in a 2-month home-based exercise (HBE) program. The experimental group received cryotherapy along with HBE. In contrast, the patients in the second control group received regular therapeutic and physiotherapeutic services at the center. The patients were recruited from the Specialized Center for Rheumatic and Medical Rehabilitation in Duhok, Iraq. RESULTS: The patients in the experimental group had statistically significant better daily activity functions compared to the first and second control groups in pain (2.22 vs 4.81 and 12.7; P < .0001), stiffness (0.39 vs 1.56 and 4.33; P < .0001), physical function (5.72 vs 13.31 and 38.13; P < .0001), and the total score (8.33 vs 19.69 and 55.33; P < .0001) at 2 months. The patients in the experimental and the first control groups had statistically significantly lower balance scores compared to the second control group at 2 months, 8.56 versus 9.30. At 3 months, similar patterns were observed for the daily activity function and balance. CONCLUSIONS: This study showed that combining HBE and cryotherapy may be an effective technique to improve function among patients with KOA. Cryotherapy could be suggested as a complementary therapy for KOA patients. |
