Tóm tắt

To observe the short-term efficacy of massaging quadriceps on knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Totally 30 KOA patients were enrolled and treated mainly with massaging quadriceps, 20 min for each session, once a day, 2 weeks as a treatment course, and for 2 courses in total. After treatment, the changes of visual analogue scale (VAS) and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities osteoarthritis index (WOMAC) were observed. The VAS and WOMAC scores dropped after treatment, with a statistically significant difference (P<0.01). After a course of treatment, the recovery rate was 33.3% and the total effective rate was 86.7%; after 2 courses, the recovery rate was 60.0% and the total effect rate was 96.7%. Massaging quadriceps can alleviate pain, improve the function of knee joint, and produce a significant short-term efficacy in treating KOA.
