What is being measured

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

  1. Self-reported pain intensity (Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Scale 0-10)

    Change from baseline to the end of the session, and the change between the dual-task and the regular condition.

    Measured: Pre exercise, immediate post session, and 10 minutes after session.

  2. Pressure pain thresholds

    Change from baseline to the end of the session, and the change between the dual-task and the regular condition.

    Measured: Pre exercise, immediate post session, and 10 minutes after session.

  3. HDsEMG

    Change from baseline to the end of the session, and the change between the dual-task and the regular condition.

    Measured: During each experimental session and during each exercise condition.

  4. Performance

    Maximum number of exercise repetitions performed.

    Measured: During each experimental session and during each exercise condition.

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK 11)

    Its score range is 11-44, with higher scores reflecting worse condition.

    Measured: Pre session.

  2. Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS)

    People are asked to indicate the degree to which they have certain thoughts and feelings when they are experiencing pain using the 0 (not at all) to 4 (all the time) scale. A total score is yielded (ranging from 0-52), along with three subscale scores assessing rumination, magnification and helplessness, with higher scores reflecting worse condition.

    Measured: Pre session.

  3. Chronic Pain Self-Efficacy Scale (CPSS)

    The Chronic Pain Self-Efficacy Scale (CPSS) is designed to measure chronic pain patients' perceived self-efficacy to cope with the consequences of chronic pain. The CPSS measures three domains of pain self-efficacy: pain management, physical functioning, and coping with symptoms. A total score is yielded (ranging from 220-2200), with higher scores reflecting a better condition.

    Measured: Pre session.

  4. WOMAC questionaire for patients with hip or knee osteoarthritis.

    The WOMAC is a disease-specific self-administered questionnaire for patients with hip or knee osteoarthritis. It has a multidimensional scale made up of 24 items grouped into three dimensions: pain (5 items), stiffness (2 items) and physical function (17 items). For each item, it uses a Likert scale with five response levels, representing different degrees of intensity (none, mild, moderate, severe or extreme) that are scored from 0 to 4. The final score for the WOMAC is determined by adding the aggregate scores for pain, stiffness and function. The higher the score, the worse the patient's condition.

    Measured: Pre session.

  5. Heart Rate

    Change from baseline to the end of the session, and the change between the dual-task and the regular condition.

    Measured: Pre exercise, immediate post session, and 10 minutes after session.

  6. Perceived difficulty of the dual-task.

    Based on an 11-point numerical rating scale.

    Measured: Immediate post exercise.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Resistance exercise in people with Knee Osteoarthritis, run by University of Valencia at 1 site in Spain.

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 3 inclusion and 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 May 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Self-reported pain intensity (Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Scale 0-10) (time frame: Pre exercise, immediate post session, and 10 minutes after session.). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 24 May 2022.
