THU0598 Course and Predictors of Pain and Physical Functioning in Patients with HIP Osteoarthritis: Systematic Review

2015

Background Knowledge of risk factors of future pain and physical functioning can be used to inform patients with hip osteoarthritis (OA) on the likely course of their condition and to adapt treatment according to the prognosis. Objectives To systematically summarise the literature on (1) the course of pain and physical functioning and on (2) prognostic factors of future pain and physical functioning in patients with OA of the hip. Methods A search was conducted in PubMed, CINAHL, Embase, Psych-INFO, and SPORTDiscus up to January 2014. Relevant study characteristics were reviewed. Studies were scored for their quality and a qualitative data synthesis was performed. Results Of the twelve incl…

OP0062-HPR Efficacy of Tailored Exercise Therapy in Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis and Comorbidity: A Randomized Controlled Trial

2016

Background Exercise therapy is a key intervention in the management of knee osteoarthritis (OA). It is an effective intervention to improve physical functioning and reduce joint pain in patients with knee OA. Comorbidity, which is highly prevalent in OA, interferes with the application of exercise therapy and contributes to non-adherence to exercise therapy. Objectives To evaluate the efficacy and safety of tailored exercise therapy on physical functioning in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) and comorbidity Methods A randomized clinical controlled trial was performed, comparing comorbidity-adapted exercise therapy with a control intervention. The study was conducted in an outpatient r…

Stratified exercise therapy by physical therapists in primary care is feasible in patients with knee osteoarthritis

2018

Background There is strong evidence that exercise therapy is effective in reducing pain and activity limitations in knee osteoarthritis (OA), but effect sizes are low to moderate. Stratified exercise therapy tailored to clinically relevant subgroups of patients is expected to optimise treatment effects in a cost-effective manner. Objectives This study aimed to explore the feasibility of a newly developed model of stratified exercise therapy in primary care. Methods A mixed method design was used, consisting of an uncontrolled pretest-posttest design and a process evaluation. Eligible patients visiting a participating primary care physical therapist (PT) were included. Based on our model, pa…

2020

OBJECTIVES: To explore the feasibility of a newly developed model of stratified exercise therapy in primary care for patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).DESIGN: Mixed method design (process, outcome and qualitative evaluation).SETTING: Six physical therapy practices in primary care around Amsterdam.PARTICIPANTS: Fifty eligible patients with knee OA, visiting one of the participating physical therapists (PTs).INTERVENTION: Patients were allocated to a subgroup based on a simple stratification tool and received subgroup-specific, protocolized, 4-month, exercise therapy.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Feasibility of this model of stratified exercise therapy was explored by multiple process parameter…

AB1076 Course of Physical Functioning and Pain in Osteoarthritis of the Knee or Hip: A Systematic Review

2014

Background The natural course of physical functioning in knee and/or hipOA is highly variable; some patients remain stable, while others improve or worsen. Knowledge on prognostic risk factors related to physical functioning are used to adapt interventions. Objectives (1) To systematically summarize the literature from March 2005 to January 2013 on the course of physical functioning and pain in patients with OA of the knee or hip and (2) to provide an overview of prognostic factors of physical functioning and future pain for these patients. Methods A search was conducted in PubMed, CINAHL, Embase and Psych-INFO in January 2013. Eligible studies were prospective cohort studies that included …
