Brief Summary:
This single blinded randomized control study aims to determine the effects of instrumental soft tissue mobilization technique with and without conservative treatment in post operative knee stiffness patients This study will recruit 84 participants fulfilling the inclusion criteria will be randomly divided into experimental and control groups using the lottery method The assessor will be unaware of the treatment given to both groups Data will be collected at baseline at the end of the third week and at the end of 6th week Baseline assessments will be conducted before the intervention Post-intervention assessments will be conducted immediately after the intervention This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of IASTM both with and without traditional conservative treatment methods in improving pain range of motion and functional ability in patients experiencing post-operative knee stiffness By examining these factors we can gain valuable insights into the potential of IASTM as a therapeutic intervention for this challenging condition
Detailed Description:
Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization IASTM is emerging as a valuable tool for physiotherapists offering a range of benefits for both practitioners and patients By integrating IASTM with traditional methods physiotherapists can elevate the standard of care improve patient outcomes and even contribute to a healthier community
Study Design
Randomized Control Trial
Screening
Patients will be screened to meet inclusion criteria The consent form will be taken from patients then patients will be randomly allocated into two groups 42 in each group
Randomization
Patients fulfilling the inclusion criteria will be randomly divided into experimental and control groups using the lottery method
Blinding
The study will be single-blinded The assessor will be unaware of the treatment given to both groups
Assessment
Data will be collected at baseline at the end of the third week and at the end of 6th week Baseline assessments will be conducted before the intervention Post-intervention assessments will be conducted immediately after the intervention
Intervention
Group A Instrumental Soft Tissue Mobilization Technique with Conservative Treatment
Group B Conservative Treatment Only
Progress Monitoring
Treatment intensity and exercise difficulty will be progressively adjusted for both groups throughout the intervention based on participant tolerance and progress
Ethical Considerations
This study has received ethical approval from the Institutional Review Board IRB Informed consent will be obtained from all participants
Data Analysis
Statistical software will be used to analyze the data with appropriate tests employed based on data normality to compare outcomes between groups
Expected Outcomes
It is anticipated that this study will provide valuable insights into the relative effectiveness of IASTM and CT approaches for improving pain range of motion and functional ability in patients experiencing post-operative knee stiffness The findings can contribute to evidence-based practice in post-operative knee stiffness rehabilitation and guide therapists in selecting the most suitable intervention for individual patient needs
