Osteoartritte Fiziksel Aktivitenin Yeri ve Önemi: Geleneksel Derleme

Abstract

Osteoartrit (OA) dünya çapında en sık görülen eklem hastalıklarından biridir ve yaygın bir yeti yitimi nedenidir. Fiziksel aktivite ve egzersiz; OA’lı bireyler için kanıta dayalı yönetimin temel bileşenleridir. Ancak OA’lı bireylerin çoğu fiziksel olarak aktif değildir. OA’lı bireylerin fiziksel olarak inaktif olmasının pek çok nedeni olmakla birlikte ağrı ve kinezyofobi başlıca nedenlerdir. Fiziksel aktivite OA ilerleyişini hızlandırmaz ve ekleme zarar vermez. Yürüyüş gibi düşük etkili egzersizler ağrıyı artırmadan güvenle yapılabilir. OA'lı bireyler mümkün olan en kısa sürede fiziksel aktiviteye başlamalı ve giderek sıklığını, şiddetini ve süresini arttırmalıdır.

The Role and Importance of Physical Activity in Osteoarthritis: Narrative Review

Abstract

Osteoarthritis is one of the most common joint diseases worldwide and a common cause of disability. Physical activity and exercise are the essential components of evidence-based management for individuals with OA. However, most individuals with OA are not physically active. Although there are many reasons why individuals with OA are physically inactive, pain and kinesiophobia are the main ones. Physical activity does not accelerate the progression of OA and does not damage the joint. Low-impact exercises such as walking can be safely performed without increasing pain. Individuals with OA should start physical activity as soon as possible and gradually increase its frequency, intensity, and duration.
