Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1) Patient who gives consent 2) Age of 40 to 60 years. 3) Both male and female gender. 4) Primary OA knee, Subjects who have clinical and radiographic symptoms of knee OA according to Kellgren-Lawrence Classification of Osteoarthritis13 stage 1,2,3, but are not a candidate for total knee joint replacement surgery. (If grading for stage of OA knee is not available then opinion from Orthopaedic surgeon will be taken.) 5) Unilateral OA knee. Since bilateral knee involvement will have different effect on functional status.

Exclusion criteria

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1) To study the effect of core stability vs hip strengthening along with knee strengthening on Functional Outcome pre and post intervention using Knee Osteoarthritis Outcome Survey in patients with Osteoarthritis of knee (Primary Objective). Timepoint: evaluation will be done at baseline, 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 6 weeks.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1) To study effect of core vs hip strengthening on functional mobility and strength using 30 sec. chair stand test. 2) To compare strength in both the groups using manual muscle testing by mod. Oxford scale/ dynamometer (if available) Timepoint: evaluation will be done at baseline, 2weeks, 4 weeks snd 6 weeks
