Knee osteoarthritis Musculoskeletal Diseases
Conditions
Interventions
Researchers will compare [hi vs low vs control home exercise program] to see which is more effective in terms of pain intensity, physical function, physical performance, and sleep quality after 8 week
3) single leg standing (SLS) for one set of 10 repetitions
4) semi squat for one set of 10 repetitions
5) seated knee extension exercise for one set of 10 repetitions
6) bilateral hip abduction and adduction exercise, for one set of 10 repetitions
and 7) self-stretching of quadriceps and hamstrings for one set of 10 repetitions.
In the high-dose exercise group, participants performed the same exercise program with an increased number of sets (
