Brief Summary: A randomized clinical trial will be conducted in Gujranwala and 24 patients with grade 3 knee OA will be recruited. After consent, patients will be randomly allocated into 2 groups by lottery method. Group A will do close kinetic chain exercises, including static cycling, lifestyle modification, and patient education. Group B will do open kinetic chain exercises including quadriceps drills with lifestyle modification and patient education. A total duration of 12 weeks with 3 sessions per week will be given. Outcome measures Assessment will be done at 0 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and 12 weeks.
Detailed Description: Osteoarthritis is a clinical syndrome characterized by joint pain, varying degrees of functional impairment, and a poor quality of life and in 21st century It is predicted that the number of persons over 65 would double placing a heavy burden on healthcare systems and caregivers' resources. For individuals with knee OA, open kinetic chain (OKC) and closed kinetic chain (CKC) exercises have been recommended thus far. The distal segment of the body components can move freely during OKC exercise since it is not bound, but remain static on the ground during CKC exercise.

A single-blinded randomized clinical trial will be conducted at Al-Raee Trust Hospital Gujranwala and 24 patients of both genders and age of 50-70 years with grade 3 knee OA (according to Kellgren and Lawrence classification system based on plain x-rays) will be recruited. After taking written consent, patients will be randomly allocated into 2 groups by lottery method. Group A will be treated with close kinetic chain exercises including static cycling with lifestyle modification and patient's education and group B will be treated with open kinetic chain exercises including quadriceps drill with lifestyle modification and patient's education about 30 minutes per session including 10 min of walking as a warm up for total duration of 12 weeks with 3 sessions per week. Outcome measures such as pain, disability and health status will be assessed by NPRS, WOMAC and OAKHQOL respectively. Assessment will be done by therapist at 0 week, 4 weeks, 8 weeks and 12 weeks.
