Group and home-based tai chi in elderly subjects with knee osteoarthritis: a randomized controlled trial

Abstract: The six weeks of group tai chi followed by another six weeks of home tai chi training showed significant improvements in mean overall knee pain (P = 0.0078), maximum knee pain (P = 0.0035) and the WOMAC subscales of physical function (P = 0.0075) and stiffness (P = 0.0206) compared to the baseline. No significant change of any outcome measure was noted in the attention control group throughout the study. The tai chi group reported lower overall pain and better WOMAC physical function than the attention control… Show more

“…A systematic review of adverse event reports in randomized trials [29] has reported certain adverse effects. These effects include muscle problems [30][31][32] and dizziness or hypotension [33]. Other patients feel pain in certain body parts (e.g., back, foot, and knee) or ankle sprains [23,30,31,[33][34][35][36].…”

“…Según los resultados obtenidos en este trabajo y en base a las ideas aportadas por Li et al 30 y Escalante et al 31 en sus revisiones, parece evidente que si se quiere superar las contradicciones que ofrecen los resultados sobre los beneficios del TCC en la OAR, dar mayor claridad a los mismos y poder establecer comparativas entre estilos y formas Tabla 4 Parámetros incluidos en los estudios sobre Tai Chi Chuan y osteoartrosis de rodilla Parámetros Brismée et al 7 Chen et al 15 Fransen et al 8 Hartman et al 16 Lee et al 3 Shen et al 10 Ni et al 9 Song et al, 11 Song et al 12 Tsai et al 17 Tsai et al 13 Wang et al 14 …”

“…El TCC, como actividad de bajo impacto e intensidad, se ha propuesto como una terapia física alternativa para tratar la osteoartrosis de rodilla (OAR), pero mientras que en algunos estudios se han encontrado efectos positivos de esta actividad sobre esta patología [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] , otros sugieren que tales efectos son escasos o con insuficiente consistencia 3,[15][16][17] . Este hecho, junto con las deficiencias metodológicas en los diseños de investigación de los estudios realizados, detectadas por parte de las revisiones sistemáticas efectuadas sobre esta temática, ha dado lugar a que se considere que los beneficios de esta actividad sobre la OAR son contradictorios y faltos de claridad [18][19][20][21][22] .…”

“…Yapılan bazı çalışmalarda ise bireylerin hastalık algılarını geliştirdiği, diyet, stres yönetimi ve iyi sağlık davranışları uyumunu sağlayarak artrit öz yeterlilik düzeyini ve öz bakım becerilerini artırdığı saptanmıştır (8,(12)(13)(14)(15)(16). Ayrıca diz OA'sında bir yıl boyunca düzenli ve bireye özgü yapılan ev egzersiz programının bireylerin kullandığı ağrı kesici miktarını azalttığı ve fonksiyonel kapasite artışına neden olarak total eklem replasmanını geciktirebileceği ifade edilmiştir (17,18).…”
