Abstract

Background and Aim: OSTEOARTHRITIS is the most common joint disease in adults around the world and plays a great role in inducing disability in elderly. Patients suffering from severe KNEE OSTEOARTHRITIS usually complain of PAIN and severe functional disability. For these patients, conservative treatments are often induces least remedy for PAIN and improvement of functional ability. This study evaluates the effects of KNEE mechanical TRACTION on PAIN, edema, range of movement and functional ability in patients with severe KNEE OSTEOARTHRITIS.Materials and Methods: In this clinical trial, forty women with severe KNEE OA (grade 3 & 4 on the Kellgren-Lawrence grading scale) were recruited and randomly divided into two groups with different treatment protocols (common physiotherapy treatment and common physiotherapy treatment accompanied by KNEE TRACTION). Functional capacity and level of PAIN were assessed by 6-minute walking test and visual analog scale respectively. A goniometer was used to measure KNEE range of movement and edema was also evaluated by use of measuring tape.Results: Common physiotherapy treatment accompanied by KNEE TRACTION compared to common physiotherapy treatment leads to significant decrease in PAIN (P<0.01) and increase in functional capacity (P<0.05).Conclusion: Common physiotherapy treatment accompanied by KNEE TRACTION is a more effective treatment than common physiotherapy procedure in patients with severe KNEE OSTEOARTHRITIS.
