The Effect of Hot and Cold Application on Pain, Stiffness and Physical Function in Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis

Öz

Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the effect that hot and cold application on pain, stiffness and physical function of patients with knee osteoarthritis Method: The study, carried out experimentally, was realized on the patients with knee osteoarthritis who came to Physical Treatment and Rehabilitation Out-patient Clinic of Hospital in Ordu. Among 79 patients participating in the study, 25 patients were divided into hot group, and 29 of the patients for cold group, and 25 of the patients were divided into control group randomly. Hot application was applied to the hot group for 15 minutes perday and for the five days throughout a month, and cold application was applied to the cold group fot 15 minutes perday and he five day throughout a month, and any application wasn’t applied to the control group. In the collection of the study data, questionnasia form, WOMAC Osteoarthritis Index and VAS pain scala were used. In the assesment of the data, Chi-square, One-way Anova, Kruskall Wallis and Mann Whitney U tests were used. Results: It was found out that there was no significant distinction between pre-test pain, stiffness and physical functional score of averages of the patients in the group of hot, cold and control p>0.05 . But there was a significant distinction between post-test pain, stiffness and physical function score averages of the patients in the group of hot, cold and control group p

Diz osteoartritli hastalarda sıcak ve soğuk uygulamanın ağrı, tutukluk ve fiziksel fonksiyon üzerine etkisi

Öz

Amaç: Bu araştırma diz osteoartritli hastalarda sıcak ve soğuk uygulamanın ağrı, tutukluk ve fiziksel fonksiyona etkisini değerlendirmek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Yöntem: Araştırma Ordu’da bulunan bir hastanenin Fizik Tedavi ve Rehabilitasyon Polikliniğine gelen ve diz osteoartriti olan hastalarda deneysel olarak yapılmıştır. Araştırma 25 sıcak, 29 soğuk ve 25 kontrol grubunda olmak üzere toplam 79 hasta üzerinde yapılmıştır. Sıcak grubundaki hastalara bir ay boyunca haftada 5 gün, günde 15 dakika sıcak uygulama, soğuk grubundakilere bir ay boyunca haftada 5 gün, günde 15 dakika soğuk uygulama yapılmış ve kontrol grubuna ise herhangi bir uygulama yapılmamıştır. Araştırma verilerinin toplanmasında anket formu, WOMAC Osteoartrit İndeksi ve VAS ağrı skalası kullanılmıştır. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde Ki Kare, Tek Yönlü Varyans Analizi, Kruskall Wallis ve Mann Whitney U testleri kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Sıcak uygulanan, soğuk uygulanan ve kontrol grubundaki hastaların gruplar arası ön-test ağrı, tutukluk ve fiziksel fonksiyon puan ortalamaları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark olmadığı p>0,05 bulunmuştur. Sıcak, soğuk ve kontrol grubundaki hastaların gruplar arası son-test ağrı, tutukluk ve fiziksel fonksiyon puan ortalamaları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark olduğu bulunmuştur p
