Study Summary
The overall objective of this 3-year project is to determine whether the provision of realignment therapy in patients with medial knee osteoarthritis (OA) relieves knee pain and improves function. The researchers will test the hypothesis that compared to control treatment, the use of realignment therapy (valgus knee brace + motion control shoes + orthosis) is effective in medial knee OA. The specific aims are: * To undertake a 30 week randomized crossover clinical trial in patients with medial knee osteoarthritis to determine whether provision of realignment therapy leads to lower pain scores and improved function during the time of this treatment than during the use of a placebo treatment; * To perform an open label follow-up study to track use and effectiveness of treatment. This project will be co-funded by DonJoy Orthopedic, a knee bracing company.
