ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical effect of osteoporosis treatment instrument combined with constant velocity eccentric exercise in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis (KOA).
MethodsA total of 82 KOA patients were selected and divided into observation group and control group by random number table method (41 cases in each group).The control group was treated with osteoporosis treatment instrument, and the observation group was treated with osteoporosis treatment instrument combined with constant velocity eccentric exercise.After 6 weeks of treatment, the peak torque and balance index of the quadriceps muscle in the two groups were compared.The KOA severity index in the two groups before treatment, at the end of treatment, 6 months after treatment, and 1 year after treatment was compared.
ResultsAfter 6 weeks of treatment, the peak torque value of quadriceps in observation group at 60 °/s and 180 °/s test was higher than that before the treatment(P < 0.05), which in control group at 60 °/s test was higher than that before the treatment(P < 0.05), and which in observation group at 60 °/s and 180 °/s test was higher than that in control group(P < 0.05).After 6 weeks of treatment, the balance index of patients in the two groups in the blinking and closing eyes was lower than that before treatment(P < 0.05), and which in observation group was significantly lower than that in control group(P < 0.01).The Lequene-Mery KOA severity index scores of patients at the end of treatment, 6 months after treatment, and 1 year after treatment in the two groups were lower than those before treatment(P < 0.05), and which in observation group were lower than those in control group(P < 0.05 to P < 0.01).
ConclusionsOsteoporosis treatment instrument combined with constant velocity eccentric exercise is helpful to improve the KOA patient′s muscle strength and balance, reduce knee pain, and has good long-term effects.
