About this study
Official title: Comparative Effects of Hold Relax Technique and Mulligan Mobilization on Pain, ROM and Function in Post Operative Knee Joint: A Randomised Controlled Trail
The aim of this study is to investigate the comparative effects of hold relax technique and mulligan mobilization on pain, ROM and function in post operative knee joint.
Read the detailed description
Stiffness or restricted ROM of the knee joint is a term used commonly to describe any traumatic condition occurring within or around the knee joint. It can result from direct and indirect below and is experienced as pain with activity, local tenderness to palpation, and decreased ability to tolerate tension, which results in decreased movement and functional strength. Post-traumatic knee stiffness and loss of range of motion is a common complication of injuries to the knee area. Immobilization of human knees for several weeks or more can result in stiffness and loss of range of motion in the joints. After knee arthroplasties, cruciate ligament repairs and trauma may lead to contracture of muscles and knee instability. Limitations of joint movements both flexion and extension suggests intraarticular pathology.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Mulligan MobilizationOther
Medial glide MWM for knee flexion (supine) Lateral glide MWM for knee flexion (supine) Medial glide MWM for knee flexion.( prone ) Lateral glide MWM for knee flexion (prone)
Hold RelaxOther
Hold-relax technique of PNF included, the affected knee will be flexed passively to the end of range with the therapist's hand on the patient's lower leg. Patients then performed 5 s of quadriceps contraction against the resistance of the therapist. Patients will be asked not to let move. At the end of 5 s, the patients will be asked to totally relax for 10 s and the therapist pushed the knee into more flexion and hold at that newly acquired range
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Mulligan Mobilization with movement | Experimental | Mulligan Mobilization with movement + Baseline treatment (Moist Heat Pack) Group will receive mulligan mobilization with movement with the frequency of 3 sets and 10 repetitions 3 times a week for 6 weeks. Receives: Other: Mulligan Mobilization |
| Hold relax technique | Experimental | Hold relax technique + Baseline treatment (Moist Heat Pack) Group will receive Hold Relax Technique of PNF included, 5 repetitions will be given 3 times/week for 6 weeks. Receives: Other: Hold Relax |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Numeric Pain Rating scale
The most common validated tool for assessment of pain in clinical tests is the numeric pain rating score (NPRS), a 10-point scale where 0 indicates no pain and 10 indicates severe pain
Measured: 3 months
Goniometer for Range of motion
It is a technique in which instrument named as goniometer purports to measure accurately the movements present in a simple or composite joint. Actually a goniometer is not used so much to measure the exact number of degrees of the movement in the joint as to find out whether there is increase or decrease of such movements. In order to do this, it is desirable that a goniometer should provide an easy method of reference to the joint or joint being examined and also provide a fixed base line point from which to measure any increase or decrease of movement
Measured: 3 months
Time up and go test for functional ability
The test consists of measuring the time it takes for an individual to get up from the chair and walk as fast as possible to a 3-meter walk, turn around, come back and sit down. Time taken to complete the test were measured on stopwatch to the nearest 1/100 of the second
Measured: 3 months
