Interventions

OTHER

Elastic Band Exercise

The participants were asked to do exercise 4 times a day with a minimum of 2 hours interval between the sessions. The participants were instructed to avoid elastic band exercise 1 hour before or after the meals in order to prevent a physical impairment and to adopt a moderately progressive approach in order to prevent lower extremity pain after exercise and to increase the sense of success and confidence. Through phone calls, researchers asked the participants in intervention group if they do the elastic band exercises at home and if they had any difficulty while doing these exercises, as well as the reasons if they haven't done the exercises. When the participants in control and intervention groups returned to hospital after 4 weeks, the knee joint movement, lower extremity strength, knee joint pain, quality of life, kinesiophobia, and depression levels and physical functions of these groups were compared.
