Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scoreAssessments will be conducted at weeks 1, 3, 6, and 12 after treatment.Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score ranging from 1 to 10, with lower scores indicating less pain intensity
Knee Society Score (KSS)Assessments will be conducted at weeks 1, 3, 6, and 12 after treatment.Knee Society Score (KSS), which consists of five major items totaling 200 points. Higher scores indicate better knee joint function
Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis IndexAssessments will be conducted at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after treatment.The severity of knee osteoarthritis was measured using the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) score, consisting of 24 items with a total possible score of 240 points. Lower WOMAC scores indicate less severe knee osteoarthritis.
