Study Summary

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common cause of pain and disability. Physical therapy is a key part of treatment for OA, but VA Medical Centers are often limited in their capacity to provide physical therapy services for veterans with knee OA. The goal of this study is to perform a preliminary work on a group-based physical therapy program for veterans with knee osteoarthritis (OA), in preparation for a larger project. This work will allow us to assess the feasibility of conducting group-based physical therapy program and to plan a larger grant submission based on the findings of this initial study. We hypothesize that the group-based program will be feasible to administer and will result in improved pain and function.

Primary Outcome

Self-report measure of pain (5 items), stiffness (2 items) and function (17 items) in lower extremity osteoarthritis. All items were measured on a 5-point likert scales, with higher scores indicating worse pain, stiffness, or functional limitations. Total WOMAC score ranges from 0-96.
