Brief summary
The objective of this clinical trial is to verify the effectiveness of polyvinyl pyrrolidone collagen in all patients with symptomatic gonarthrosis grades II-IV in patients over 40 years of age. The main objectives that this study aims to answer are the following: 1. \- Document the effectiveness of intra-articular polyvinylpyrrolidone collagen in the treatment of symptomatic gonarthrosis. 2. \- Compare the intensity of pain, the degree of stiffness and functionality of the joint, prior to application and one month after the therapeutic intervention. 3. \- Identify demographic, clinical and therapeutic factors that influence the effectiveness of intra-articular PVP collagen in the treatment of symptomatic gonarthrosis. Patients diagnosed with symptomatic gonarthrosis Grade II-IV, referred to the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation service within 3 months, will be selected. Two study groups will be assigned: GROUP those who received intra-articular infiltration of PVP Collagen, GROUP B: patients who received conservative treatment. Through rehabilitation with a home program for one month, in both cases, ENA and the WOMAC scale will be evaluated at the beginning of the study and after 4 weeks.
Detailed description
INTRODUCTION: Osteoarthritis is a disorder characterized by progressive deterioration of cartilage in synovial joints, affecting more than 55% of the elderly population, causing significant physical disability, implying a great challenge in medical treatment. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A sequential, simple randomized clinical trial was carried out in patients diagnosed with symptomatic gonarthrosis Grade II-IV, referred to the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation service in 3 months, through two study groups: GROUP Those who received intra-articular infiltration of Collagen PVP, GROUP B: patients who received conservative treatment through rehabilitation with a home program for one month. In both cases, ENA and the WOMAC scale were evaluated at the beginning of the study and at 4 weeks.
