| Summary: | This study aimed to determine the effects of the adapted Malaysian version physiotherapy osteoarthritis-based care protocol (PTOA-BCP) on physical performances and level of disability among overweight and obese women with knee osteoarthritis (OA). Sixty-three adult women aged 45-65 years with knee osteoarthritis were recruited and divided into three intervention groups based on BMI which were ≤ 23.5 kg/m² (n=11), < 27.5 kg/m² (n=15) and ≥ 27.5 kg/m² (n=37). They completed 8 weeks of outpatient physiotherapy interventions consisting of lower extremity strengthening, stretching, range of motion, balance, proprioception and aerobic exercises. |
