Summary

Exercise plays a key role in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis, but there is no clear evidence on which type of exercise is most effective. Recent studies highlight the benefits of core stabilization exercises for improving knee stability. This study aims to demonstrate the effects of adding core stabilization exercises to conventional exercise therapy for patients with knee osteoarthritis.

Conditions

  • Exercise Training
  • Osteoarthritis, Knee
  • Core Stability
  • Muscle Thickness of the Quadriceps Femoris
  • Balance

Interventions

OTHER

Core stabilization exercises

In most studies, exercises focused on the extremities have been researched. We believe that the positive effects of the core region on walking and postural stability will play a significant role in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis.

OTHER

Classical exercise therapy

In the first group of our study, we prescribed exercises that have been proven effective in many studies, are frequently prescribed, and focus on joint range of motion and quadriceps strengthening
