Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to investigate the feasibility effectiveness and duration of treatment response of periosteal electro-acupuncture osteopuncture for osteoarthritis OA-associated chronic knee pain
Detailed Description:
Knee osteoarthritis OA is painful in 68 of men and 114 of women age 63-93 with over 20 million Americans affected nationwide and may lead to a variety of untoward consequences including limitations in physical function postural instability sleep disturbance psychosocial disability and substantial utilization of health care resources While oral analgesics represent the mainstay of treatment for chronic pain associated with knee OA non-responders with limiting comorbidities may have few therapeutic alternatives
The aims of this research study are to 1 reduce pain severity and disability in community-dwelling older adults with OA-associated chronic knee pain using periosteal electroacupuncture osteopuncture and 2 improve the physical performance psychosocial function sleep and appetite of these individuals 88 older adults with persistent knee pain and x-ray evidence of OA no other rheumatologic disorders no history of knee surgery and no prominent pain in sites other than the knees will be randomized to receive either osteopuncture or control osteopuncture once a week for 6 weeks All outcome measures for pain and disability as well as physical performance psychosocial function sleep and appetite will be collected pre-treatment at the completion of the 6-week protocol and 3 months later
