A Biomechanical Exercise Program for Knee OA

keskiviikko 18. tammikuuta 2017 päivittänyt: McMaster University

Clinical and Tissue Outcomes of a Biomechanical Exercise Program for Knee Osteoarthritis

Prescribing exercise for people with painful knee osteoarthritis (OA) is essential for pain management, improved function, and chronic disease prevention. Exercise that decreases joint exposure to damaging loading while eliciting adequate muscular activation for strength improvements is ideal. The purpose of this 3-arm RCT is to compare mobility, strength, pain, and MRI outcomes between the low-loading biomechanical exercise program (BE), a traditional exercise program for knee OA (TE), and a control group completing meditation classes (M).

Yksityiskohtainen kuvaus

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common joint disease affecting 1 in 10 Canadians. Osteoarthritis commonly presents in the knee joint and is associated with mobility limitations, pain, and an increased risk of other chronic health conditions such as heart disease. It is critical to implement exercise for people with knee OA as it can be an effective method for improving pain, mobility, and cardiovascular health. A biomechanical exercise program using static yoga postures has been established in the investigators lab based on minimizing damaging knee joint loads, while effectively exercising the musculature around the knee joint. The investigators pilot project (REB#13-510) showed that a 12-week yoga program using these biomechanical exercises improved pain and mobility while keeping the medial joint loading well below that experienced during normal level walking. The next step with this exercise program is to compare clinical and tissue outcomes with that of a regularly prescribed aerobic and strengthening program, as well as a control group completing meditation classes. The investigators aim to identify differences in clinical mobility performance outcomes, muscle and fat volumes using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and cartilage integrity using MRI between the three groups using a randomized controlled trial (RCT) design.

Aseet ja interventiot

Osallistujaryhmä / Arm
Interventio / Hoito
Kokeellinen: Biomechanical Exercise (BE)
The participants in this arm will be asked to attend 3 group classes per week for 12 weeks at a local yoga studio taught by a certified yoga instructor. Four class times will be offered per week. These classes will include a warm-up, static poses shown to decrease knee joint loading, and a cool down including flexibility exercises. Measurements will be obtained at baseline (before intervention) and at follow-up (following intervention). Outcomes will include clinical mobility; muscle and fat volumes, and cartilage morphology using MRI; pain; isometric leg strength; cardiovascular fitness; and gait analysis.
Muut: Biomechanical Exercise (BE)
A biomechanical exercise program shown to decrease joint loading will be administered 3 times a week for 12 weeks. Outcomes will include mobility performance; pain; muscle and fat volumes, and cartilage morphology using MRI; strength; cardiovascular fitness; and gait analysis.
Active Comparator: Traditional Exercise (TE)
The participants in this arm will be prescribed an aerobic and strengthening exercise program often prescribed to those with knee OA. The program will include 15 minutes of walking per class, closed kinetic chain strengthening exercises on machines, and a cool down consisting of stretching. Participants will be asked to come to class 3 times per week for 12 weeks. Certified Kinesiologists as well as student volunteers will be available during all class times for program completion and progression.
Muut: Traditional Exercise (TE)
A traditional exercise program for people with knee OA will be administered 3 times a week for 12 weeks. Outcomes will include mobility performance; pain; muscle and fat volumes, and cartilage morphology using MRI; strength; cardiovascular fitness; and gait analysis.
Muut: Meditation Control (M)
The participants in this arm will be asked to attend 3 meditation classes per week for 12 weeks taught by a certified yoga instructor with a specialization in meditation. This will take place at an alternate yoga studio to avoid contamination. Since it is known that exercise is beneficial for pain management and strengthening in knee OA, participants randomized to the control group will be offered a free exercise pass following completion of the study.
Muut: Meditation Control (M)
A meditation program acting as a control will be administered 3 times a week for 12 weeks. Outcomes will include mobility performance; pain; muscle and fat volumes, and cartilage morphology using MRI; strength; cardiovascular fitness; and gait analysis.

Mitä tutkimuksessa mitataan?

Ensisijaiset tulostoimenpiteet

Tulosmittaus
Toimenpiteen kuvaus
Aikaikkuna
Change in Lower Extremity Function
Aikaikkuna: Week 1 and Week 13
The Lower Extremity Function Scale (LEFS) consists of 20 items, on an adjectival scale, that assess difficulty during mobility tasks ranging from transfers to running. The LEFS is scored from 0 to 80 with higher scores represent better self-reported physical function. It is reliable and valid in knee OA and has superior sensitivity to change compared to similar measures. The mean (95% confidence interval) difference score (follow-up score - baseline score) was computed for each of the three study arms.

Tulosmittaus
Toimenpiteen kuvaus
Aikaikkuna
Change in Self-reported Knee Pain
Aikaikkuna: Week 1 and Week 13
Change in self-reported knee pain was assessed with 3 valid and reliable questionnaires: the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), the Intermittent and Constant Osteoarthritis Pain (ICOAP) score, and the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS). The KOOS pain score represents a normalized score from 0 (extreme symptoms) to 100 (no symptoms). KOOS scores closer to 100 indicate fewer symptoms. The ICOAP consists of two sub-scales: constant pain (5 items) and intermittent pain (6 items). The score from each subscale represents a normalized score from 0 (no pain) to 100 (extreme pain). ICOAP scores closer to 0 indicate less pain. The NPRS pain score represents a score from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). NPRS ratings were provided following maximum isometric knee extensor exertions and flexor exertions. The mean (95% confidence interval) difference score (follow-up score - baseline score) was computed for each of the three study arms.
Week 1 and Week 13
Change in Arthritis-related Self-efficacy
Aikaikkuna: Week 1 and Week 13
The Arthritis Self-Efficacy Scale (ASES) measures arthritis-specific beliefs regarding perception of performance on certain tasks to cope with the disease. The ASES is measured using 20 questions on a 10-100 scale with respect to three main areas: pain management (5 questions), physical function (9 questions), and other symptoms (6 questions). Higher numbers indicate greater certainty that a participant can cope with a particular task as a consequence of their disease. The mean (95% confidence interval) difference score (follow-up score - baseline score) was computed for each of the three study arms.
Week 1 and Week 13
Change in Depression Status
Aikaikkuna: Week 1 and Week 13
Depression was assessed with the Centre of Epidemiological Studies Depression (CES-D) Scale, a 20-item scale developed for the general population with emphasis on affect. Elements of affect include mood, guilt, worthlessness, helplessness, appetite, and sleep. The CES-D is scored from 0 to 60 with a score of 16 or higher indicating depression. The mean (95% confidence interval) difference score (follow-up score - baseline score) was computed for each of the three study arms.
Week 1 and Week 13
Change in Frailty Status
Aikaikkuna: Week 1 and Week 13
Frailty was assessed using the Edmonton Frail Scale (EFS). The EFS is a brief screening interview for older adults to assess frailty that is commonly used in both inpatient and outpatient settings. The scale covers 8 domains: cognition, general health status, functional independence, social support, medication use, nutrition, mood, continence, and functional performance (defined as performance on the Timed Up and Go [TUG] test). The test is scored out of 17, with higher scores indicating higher levels of frailty. The mean (95% confidence interval) difference score (follow-up score - baseline score) was computed for each of the three study arms.
Week 1 and Week 13
