Study Summary

This is the first study to test the effect of Tai Chi on pain from knee osteoarthritis in community-dwelling elders with mild cognitive impairment. If Tai Chi is effective in reducing pain, clinicians can use it routinely with this population; then elders can maintain their functional ability longer, and perhaps delay or prevent long-term care admission, and the investigators can save health care dollars.

Primary Outcome

Measured by 1). the WOMAC pain subscale; 2). the Verbal Descriptor Scale (VDS); 3). Keefe observational method; and 4). Analgesic intake.

Interventions
