From Perception to Performance: A Comprehensive Evaluation in Knee Osteoarthritis.

Knee Osteoarthritis (KOA) is commonly characterized by joint pain, swelling, stiffness, and a reduction in range of motion. These symptoms significantly affect daily activities and overall quality of life. A decrease in physical activity levels may further contribute to the deterioration of joint function over time. Physiotherapy assessment plays a critical role in the management of KOA. Such assessment enables a comprehensive evaluation of parameters including pain intensity, joint range of motion, muscle strength, flexibility, functional status, and quality of life. The use of both subjective and objective assessment methods is essential for developing individualized and effective treatment plans.
