“…The quality of life scores in both groups was reduced. 11 A recent study pointed out that an acceptable tool to estimate adiposity in OA patients was BMI. 12 The study indicated that the significant improvement in Knee OA symptoms, quality of life, and muscle strength can be achieved by home-based exercise interventions.…”

Purpose This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of progressive resistance strength training of the lower limb rehabilitation protocol (LLRP) on body mass index (BMI), quality of life, and functional capacity in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) who were overweight and obese. Patients and Methods Fifty-six patients were allocated into either the Rehabilitation Protocol Group (RPG) or the Control Group (CG) by a computer-generated random number. The patients in the RPG performed the strengthening exercises of the LLRP and followed the instruction of daily care (IDC). The patients in the CG only followed the IDC as a usual care. Gait Speed Test, quality of life, and BMI were taken at pre-test and post-test measurements. Paired samples t -test and two way mixed analysis of variance were used to analyze the change of BMI within and compare the difference of BMI between the groups, respectively. Wilcoxon signed ranked test and Mann–Whitney U -test were used to analyze the changes of quality of life and functional capacity within and compare the differences of quality of life and functional capacity between the groups, respectively. Results The patients in the RPG reported a significant reduction in BMI (p = 0.025), improvement in quality of life (p ≤ 0.001), and functional capacity (p ≤ 0.001) within group. The patients in the CG also reported a significant improvements in quality of life (p < 0.05). The improvement in quality of life score was greater in the patients with RPG than the CG (p = 0.053). Conclusion The progressive resistance strength training of LLRP is effective in terms of reducing BMI, improving quality of life and functional capacity.

“…[10] Thus to avoid this factor 6MWT and 6PBRT were assessed to evaluate energy expenditure and exercise capacity of patients with osteoarthritis of knee. Factors such as weight bearing pain, joint instability sometimes mask patient's functional capacity since 6MWT incorporates weight bearing activity and increased weight bearing in turn increases pain [11]. Therefore 6 PBRT which uses involvement of upper limbs, was used to assess exercise capacity in patients with OA knee so that weight bearing pain which is one of the symptoms of OA knee was not the limiting factor in testing cardiovascular endurance [11].…”

Introduction: Osteoarthritis of knee is a progressive joint disease which produces pain, inflammation and destruction of joint which in turn leads to range of motion limitation and walking disabilities. Affection in physical functioning is determined not only by just activities involving lower limb capacity but also by the activities which require use of upper extremities. Hence in this study, 6MWD and no. of rings moved in 6 minutes were taken as an outcome measures for determining the exercise capacity. KOOS is a self-administered questionnaire which was used in its cross culturally adapted format for determining the functional disability in patients. Objectives: 1. To study correlation of exercise capacity with functional disability in patients with osteoarthritis of knee. 2. To study correlation of upper limb exercise capacity with lower limb exercise capacity in patients with osteoarthritis of knee. Methods: Cross sectional, observational study including 30 patients of either gender having unilateral osteoarthritis of knee conducted in a tertiary care hospital. Results: No. of rings moved in 6 minutes and global KOOS score showed no statistically significant correlation. 6MWD and global KOOS score showed no statistically significant correlation. 6 minute walk distance and 6 minute peg board ring test showed no statistically significant correlation. Conclusion: The study suggests that there is no correlation of exercise capacity with functional disability in patients with osteoarthritis of knee. Also, there is no correlation found between upper limb exercise capacity and lower limb exercise capacity in patients with osteoarthritis of knee. KEY WORDS: Knee osteoarthritis, Knee pain, squat depth, functional disability, cardiorespiratory endurance, Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, Quality of life.

“…It has been reported that a high proportion of body fat is correlated with obesity, severity of osteoarthritis and frailty in older persons 43 . Therefore, nutritional assessment and management are important to ensure maintenance of appropriate body weight 44‐45 . Weight reduction leads to a reduction in joint loading, which contributes to the progression of KOA structurally 46 …”

Objective The aim of this review was to determine the contents and parameters of self‐management education programs (SMEPs) for older adults with knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Methods A systematic electronic literature search (Scopus, MEDLINE, ProQuest, CINAHL, Cochrane and a grey literature specific site through Google Scholar) was undertaken between March and May 2018 (search updated in June 2019). Studies were selected based on predetermined criteria. Data relating to the contents and parameters of the SMEP were extracted and collated. Results A total of 11 experimental studies met the inclusion criteria. Overall quality of the selected studies was good. The contents used for SMEP in older adults with KOA were information and management of KOA, healthy lifestyle and additional management strategies for KOA. The parameters used were face‐to‐face sessions led by health professionals and were chiefly group‐based. Conclusion This review comprehensively summarises the structure of multifaceted SMEP for people with KOA, which could be used to inform clinical practice and future research.

Comparative study of functional capacity and quality of life among obese and non-obese elderly people with knee osteoarthritis

Abstract: OA associated with obesity caused a negative impact on functional capacity; however, quality of life scores were low, and no difference in obese and non-obese subjects was found.
