Gender Based Comparison of the Effects of Sensory Modulated Graded Weight Bearing Physiotherapy In Adults With Knee Osteoarthritis
Sponsor: Shifa Tameer-e-Millat University
Summary
This comparative experimental study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Sensory-Modulated Graded Weight-Bearing Physiotherapy (SMGWBP) in patients with knee osteoarthritis and compare treatment outcomes between male and female participants. Participants will receive a 6-week physiotherapy program with assessments conducted at baseline (pre-intervention), mid-intervention (3 weeks), and post-intervention (6 weeks) using validated outcome measures.

Sensory-Modulated Graded Weight-Bearing Physiotherapy
A structured six-week Sensory-Modulated Graded Weight-Bearing Physiotherapy Programme consisting of three supervised sessions per week (18 sessions total). Each session includes warm-up, sensory modulation, proprioceptive training, graded weight-bearing strengthening, functional mobility exercises, and cool-down activities. The programme progresses through three phases: Weeks 1-2 focus on sensory activation and proprioceptive training; Weeks 3-4 on graded weight-bearing strengthening; and Weeks 5-6 on functional weight-bearing integration. Exercises are progressed according to participant tolerance, pain severity, and functional performance. Both male and female groups receive the same intervention.
