Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of core stabilization exercises( CSE) on knee osteoarthritis. Methods Sixty cases patients with knee osteoarthritis were randomly divided into treatment group (n = 30)and control group(n = 30). Patients in control group were accepted conventional therapy including conventional physiotherapy,acupuncture,and massage,while in treatment group were accepted CSE besides conventional therapy. All patients were assessed with Lysholm Knee Scoring Scale(LKSS)and Visual Analogous Scale(VAS)before and after treatment. Results VAS in treatment group before and after treatment were(8. 31 ± 1. 16)and(3. 37 ± 0. 97),and the difference was statistically significant( t = 16. 30,P = 0. 00). VAS in control group before and after treatment VAS were(8. 26 ± 1. 22)and(5. 06 ± 0. 82),and the difference was statistically significant( t = 12. 19,P = 0. 000. VAS in two groups after treatment was statistically significant (t = - 6. 98,P = 0. 00). LKSS in treatment group before and after treatment were(32. 92 ± 4. 21),(60. 19 ± 4. 42),and the difference was statistically significant(t = - 30. 44,P = 0. 00). LKSS in control group before and after treatment was(34. 82 ± 5. 58),(53. 49 ± 3. 66),and the difference was statistically significance (t = - 14. 82,P = 0. 00). After the treatment,LKSS in the two groups was significant difference(t = 7. 16,P= 0. 00). Conclusion The core stability training can improve the patients with knee osteoarthritis of knee joint function,relieve pain.
