About this study

this study will be conducted to investigate the role of hip strengthening in improving dynamic knee stability, gait parameter, lower extremity strength and disability in knee osteoarthritis

Read the detailed description

knee osteoarthritis accounts for more than 80% of the total burden of the diseases. patients with knee osteoarthritis had worse spatiotemporal gait parameter and dynamic instabitity. there are significant hip muscle weakness in knee osteoarthritis. hip muscle weakness leads to improper alignment and stress in knee joint. hip muscle strength can affect knee joint loading and disease progression in knee osteoarthritis. muscles of the lower extremity play a critical role in the preservation of normal knee joint function by providing dynamic knee joint stability and shock absorption, while maintaining safe transfer of forces across the joint.

Being tested
hip strengthening, quadriceps strengthening, stretch hamstring,cuff muscles
Medical subject headings
Osteoarthritis, Knee

What participants receive

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

  • hip strengtheningOther

    resistance training for hip abductor, hip extensor, and hip external rotator

  • quadriceps strengthening, stretch hamstring,cuff musclesOther

    multi-angle isometric quadriceps strengthening and hamstring and cuff self stretch

Study groups in NCT04509830
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
hip strengtheningExperimentalresistance training for hip abductor, hip extensor, and hip external rotator will be performed.cuff weights will be used with 80% of 1 repetition maximum at 3 sets of 8 repetitions with 10-15 second rest between repetitions and 1-2 minute rest between sets.
Receives: Other: hip strengthening; Other: quadriceps strengthening, stretch hamstring,cuff muscles
quadriceps strengthening, stretch for hamstring,cuff musclesActive comparatorquadriceps strengthening: multi-angle isometric exercise from sitting position will be performed. cuff weights will be used with 3 sets of 12 repetitions at 40% of 1 reprtition maximum. self stretch for hamstring and cuff muscles from supine position. the procedure will be repeated 4 times.
Receives: Other: quadriceps strengthening, stretch hamstring,cuff muscles

What is being measured

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

  1. dynamic knee stability

    dynamic knee stability will be measured by frontal plane projection angle

    Measured: baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing hip strengthening and quadriceps strengthening, stretch hamstring,cuff muscles in people with Knee Osteoarthritis, run by Cairo University.

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

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact heba elsaeed (01066451851, hebaelsayed880@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

dynamic knee stability (time frame: baseline). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Dec 2020.
