Therapeutic Effect of Yijinjing Rehabilitation Training Combined with Interference Current Therapy on Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis by XU Ming, LI Ya, QIN Shuang, LU Xiaoye, AI Kun, ZHANG Hong

“…Before and after treatment, visual analogue score (VAS) was used to evaluate the severity of pain; universal goniometer was used to measure the active range of motion (AROM); timed "up and go" test (TUGT) was used to evaluate the functional walking ability; Western Ontario and McMaster University Arthritis Index (WOMAC) score was used to evaluate knee function; and Berg balance scale (BBS) and balance function test system were used to evaluate balance function (left and right swing index, center of gravity track length, track rectangular area, track peripheral area, and track length per unit area with eyes open or closed).ResultsCompared with that before treatment, TUGT, pain, stiffness and physical function scores and total score of WOMAC, left and right swing index, center of gravity track length, track rectangular area and track peripheral area with eyes open or closed in both groups after treatment decreased significantly, the proportion of low VAS score (0-2 points), the maximum AROM, the BBS score and track length per unit area with eyes open or closed increased significantly, and the differences were statistically significant (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05). Compared with the control group, TUGT, pain, stiffness and physical function scores and total score of WOMAC, left and right swing index, center of gravity track length, track rectangular area and track peripheral area with eyes open or closed in the observation group after treatment decreased significantly, the proportion of low VAS score (0-2 points), the maximum AROM, the BBS score and track length per unit area with eyes open or closed increased significantly, and the diffe-rences were statistically significant (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05).ConclusionYijinjing rehabilitation training combined with ICT can improve pain, motor function and balance function of patients with KOA, which is recommended for clinical application.…”
