Evaluation of the Efficiency of Propioceptive Study According to Radiological Stages in Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis
Investigators divided patients with knee osteoarthritis into two groups. Group 1 consisted of stage 1 and stage 2 patients. Group 2 consisted of stage 3 and stage 4 patients. Proprioceptive training was applied in both groups. Investigators aim is to evaluate the effect of proprioceptive exercises on knee osteoarthritis according to the radiological level.
4,398 studies on the registry are indexed under Osteoarthritis; 582 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 34 is below the median of 70 across 3,440 interventional studies indexed under Osteoarthritis.

Exclusion Criteria:
Having active synovitis
This group includes patients with grade 1 and grade 2 knee osteoarthritis.
Other: Proprioceptive training
This group includes patients with grade 3 and grade 4 osteoarthritis.
Other: Proprioceptive training
Proprioceptive exercises were applied to both groups. In addition to these exercises, balance, coordination and strengthening exercises will also be applied to both groups.
The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC)
The scale consists of 3 main headings and 24 questions. It is scored between 0 and 100. There is a negative correlation between scoring and functionality.
Time frame: Evaluation will be performed before treatment and after 4 weeks rehabilitation program.
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)
The levels of pain is felted at rest / activity / night will be measured using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)..Patients will be asked to evaluate their pain status with a 10-point scale and high scores are positively correlated with pain
Time frame: Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks
Pressure Pain Threshold Measurement
A digital algometer will be used for Pressure Pain Threshold Measurement. Digital algometer is a device that objectively evaluates the pressure pain threshold. Low values indicate increased sensitivity and pain sensation.
Time frame: Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks
Range of Motion (ROM)
Knee,food and hip ROM will be evaluated with digital goniometer while the patient will be in supine and prone position.
Time frame: Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks
Timed Up and Go Test (TUG)
The scale consists of 7 questions measuring the physical activity of the individual in the last 7 days. The activity level is determined according to the scale score.
Time frame: Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks
Manual Muscle Test
Manual Muscle Test is a procedure for the evaluation of strength of individual muscle or muscles group, based upon the effective performance of a movement in relation to the forces of gravity or manual resistance through the available ROM.
Time frame: Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks
Short Form 36 (SF-36)
SF-36 will be used to assess physical and mental health-related quality of life. The total score is at least 0 and at most 100, and the high scores are positively correlated with high quality of life.
Time frame: Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks
Global Rating of Change (GRC) Scale
Global Rating of Change (GRC) scale will be used to assess the overall satisfaction levels of the patients. Patients will be asked to evaluate their post-treatment status with a 5-point likert scale and high scores are positively correlated with satisfaction.
Time frame: 4 weeks
International Physical Activity Scale (IPAQ)
The scale consists of 7 questions measuring the physical activity of the individual in the last 7 days. The activity level is determined according to the scale score.
Time frame: Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks
Proprioception Sense
The sense of proprioception will be measured using a digital goniometer. It will be repeated 3 times. The average will be recorded
Time frame: Evaluation will be performed at Baseline (before treatment) and 4 weeks
