| description | Proximal stability consists of core and hip stability play a significant role in
supporting the body weight in stationary and in motion. Thus, proximal stability
could contribute to knee osteoarthritis (OA). Therefore, this study was carried out
to determine the core stability and hip stability of knee OA patients. A total of
thirty-two women aged between 45 to 60 years had volunteered to participate
in this study, comprised of 16 knee OA patients and 16 normal. Hip stability was
assessed using hip crossover test and core stability was assessed using core muscle
endurance, core muscle strength and core muscle flexibility. Data of hip stability,
core muscle strength and flexibility were analyzed using chi-square; and core
muscle endurance data were analyzed using independent sample t-test. Compared
to normal subjects, knee OA patients have poor hip stability [Hip Crossover Test
(λ=0.500, p=0.033)] and core stability. Core stability was assessed based on core
muscle strength [abdominal muscles (χ=12.157, p<0.001); quadriceps and gluteal
muscles (χ=13.364, p<0.001); hip muscles (χ=17.936, p<0.001); latissimus dorsi
and quadriceps (χ=15.906, p<0.001)]; core muscle endurance [plank endurance
(t=4.719, p<0.001); trunk flexion (t=2.824, p=0.008); trunk extension (t=1.364,
p=0.193)]; core muscle flexibility [Ely’s test (λ=0.438, p=0.010)]. The proximal
stability of knee OA patients appears to be significantly weaker than normal
subjects. Thus, core stability and hip stability training have high potential not
only to lessen the symptoms of knee osteoarthritis but to improve the functional
movement of knee OA patients. |
