Summary

This study tested whether a custom knee brace connected to a mobile app and motion sensors can improve symptoms and daily function for people with knee osteoarthritis. 36 adults aged 45-75 with mild to moderate knee OA wore their assigned brace for 6 months and completed surveys and measurements. The goal was to see if remote rehabilitation could be an effective non-surgical option.

Who is studied

Participants will be observed from patients receiving conservative treatment for medial compartment knee osteoarthritis at the Sporto Clinic. The study population includes adults aged 45 to 75 years diagnosed with unicompartmental knee osteoarthritis (Kellgren-Lawrence grade I-III) in one lower limb, confirmed by imaging. Participants are community-dwelling individuals able to follow a home-based exercise program and use a functional knee brace.

Inclusion Criteria: * Unicompartmental knee osteoarthritis (medial compartment), Kellgren-Lawrence grade I-III, confirmed by imaging; affecting one lower limb (with predominant symptoms in either the right or left leg) * Age between 45 and 75 years * Preserved passive knee extension; flexion contracture of up to 20 degrees of extension deficit is acceptable * Signed informed consent for participation in the clinical investigation Exclusion Criteria: * Bicompartmental knee osteoarthritis with similar symptom severity in both compartments * Neurological disorders * Rheumatoid arthritis * Coexisting dysfunctions of the hip and/or ankle joint of the affected limb * Ligament injuries (ACL, PCL, MCL, LCL) and/or meniscus injuries (medial or lateral) causing significant joint instability (moderate instability due to ligament insufficiency, common in osteoarthritis, is not excluded) * Bone fractures * Sensory disturbances in the lower limbs * Passive knee extension deficit greater than 20 degrees * Major surgical procedures involving the knee joint within the last 6 months * Lack of informed consent and/or inability to establish reliable verbal-logical communication with the participant * Other medical conditions preventing independent application of the brace and/or use of the mobile application
