Abstract

Purpose : this study was to investigate the influence on lower extremity pattern of PNF to muscle questionnaire ability of patients with knee OA. Methods : The subjects were consisted of 60 women patients with knee OA. And all subjects were randomly devide to two group which was modality group and PNF group. Each group had a treatment for 30 minutes per day and three times a week during 8 weeks period. VAS was used to measure pain, patient specific functional scale(PSFS) was used to measure patient's functional disability level, global perceived effect scale(GPES) was used to measure recovery or worse of patient's condition, muscle assessment questionnaire (MAQ) was used to measure patient's pain level. Results : 1. VAS was showed that PNF group had more significantly decreased than modality group(p<.05). 2. PSFS was showed that PNF group had more significantly increased than modality group(p<.05). 3. GPES was showed that PNF group had more significantly decreased than modality group(p<.05). 4. MAQ was showed that PNF group had more significantly decreased than modality group(p<.05). Conclusion : There are strong significant between PNF group and modality group.
