Risk assessment and Management Programme - Knee Osteoarthritis
(i) Arthritis education: Topics will cover the 21 key messages identified in International Consensus List of Essential Statements for Osteoarthritis "What Do People With Knee or Hip Osteoarthritis Need to Know" (ii) Structured land-based exercise: We have selected strengthening, flexibility training (stretching), and aerobic exercise as our key components because they are most applicable in primary care settings. (iii) Weight Management: Weight management will be offered for participants with a BMI ≥ 23 kg/m2. (iv) Counselling support for psychosocial health: counselling support will be provided for those with mild to moderate anxiety and depression, insomnia and loneliness identified in the risk assessment. (v) Dietary advice: Online dietary education for musculoskeletal health (with reference to local context) will be provided. The dietitian will also provide support regarding specific dietary advice on weight management.
