Abstract

The Impact of a Structured Teaching Program on Patients With Osteoarthritis’ Isometric Exercise Knowledge and Practice Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease that is very expensive for our health-care system. The most prevalent site of osteoarthritis is the lower extremities, notably the knee joint. 1.to assess the knowledge and practise of isometric exercise among osteoarthritis patients. 2.to determine the efficacy of a systematic isometric exercise training programme in osteoarthritis patients 3.to investigate the relationship between osteoarthritis patients’ knowledge and practise of isometric exercises. 4.to establish a link between the demographic variable and the knowledge and practise of isometric exercise among patients with osteoarthritis. The efficacy of a systematic training programme on isometric exercise was evaluated using a quasi- experimental research method. In an orthopaedic hospital, there are (100) patients with osteoarthritis. Sampling is a simple sampling method. Conclusions and Findings During the pretest, 54 percent of the 100 samples had insufficient knowledge, whereas 46 percent had adequate knowledge. 52 percent had moderately adequate knowledge and 48 percent had adequate knowledge at the pottest level. In the pretest, 73 percent of the 100 samples had poor practise, 27% had acceptable practise, and 60% had good practise. Knowledge pre- and post-testing The value of the ‘t’ test is 11.67, whereas it is actually 23.36. At the p0.001 level, the ‘t’ value was compared to the tabulated table value.Patients with osteoarthritis experienced a statistically significant increase in knowledge (p0.001). In terms of the utility of organised teaching programmes, there was a significant improvement in knowledge and practise of isometric exercise when osteoarthritis patients were admitted to structured teaching programmes.
