OARSI recommended performance-based tests to assess physical function in people diagnosed with hip or knee osteoarthritis

TLDR
The OARSI recommended set of performance-based tests of physical function represents the tests of typical activities relevant to individuals diagnosed with hip or knee OA and following joint replacements and are complementary to patient-reported measures.

Improving osteoarthritis care by digital means - Effects of a digital self-management program after 24- or 48-weeks of treatment.

TL;DR: Continuously participating in a digital OA treatment program for 6 or 12 months was associated with a clinically important decrease in joint pain and increased physical function, in hip and knee OA.

Psychological health is associated with knee pain and physical function in patients with knee osteoarthritis: an exploratory cross-sectional study

TL;DR: It is indicated that depression may be associated with increased knee pain intensity during daily living in a non-task-specific manner and is associated with functional limitation in patients with knee OA, even after controlling for covariates, including bilateral knee pain and ambulatory physical activity.

Objective assessment of physical activity and sedentary behaviour in knee osteoarthritis patients – beyond daily steps and total sedentary time

TL;DR: In this study, event-based parameters, such as stair climbing or short bouts of walking or sedentary time, were found more capable of discriminating between subgroups of KOA patients compared to overall levels of PA and sedentaryTime.

Intra-rater reliability and agreement of muscle strength, power and functional performance measures in patients with hip osteoarthritis.

TL;DR: In patients with hip osteoarthritis leg extensor power is unaffected by the time interval between tests, in contrast to muscle strength and functional performance.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Combined Patient and Provider Intervention for Management of Osteoarthritis in Veterans: A Randomized Clinical Trial

TL;DR: In this randomized trial, providing treatment recommendations to physicians in addition to telephone-based support to patients with knee or hip osteoarthritis resulted in modest improvements in physical function.

The Timed “Up & Go”: A Test of Basic Functional Mobility for Frail Elderly Persons

TL;DR: This study evaluated a modified, timed version of the “Get‐Up and Go” Test (Mathias et al, 1986) in 60 patients referred to a Geriatric Day Hospital and suggested that the timed “Up & Go’ test is a reliable and valid test for quantifying functional mobility that may also be useful in following clinical change over time.

International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health

TL;DR: The World Health Organization’s (WHO) International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) has been revised to recognize that the concept of disability resides largely in the sociocultural domain of the authors' lives rather than being an attribute of the individual.

Predicting the probability for falls in community-dwelling older adults using the Timed Up & Go Test.

TL;DR: The TUG is a sensitive and specific measure for identifying community-dwelling adults who are at risk for falls and the ability to predict falls is not enhanced by adding a secondary task when performing the TUG.

Comfortable and maximum walking speed of adults aged 20—79 years: reference values and determinants

TL;DR: Gait speed can be expected to be reduced in individuals of greater age and of lesser height and lower extremity muscle strength and normative values should give clinicians a reference against which patient performance can be compared in a variety of settings.

A 30-s chair-stand test as a measure of lower body strength in community-residing older adults

TL;DR: It was concluded that the 30-s chair stand provides a reasonably reliable and valid indicator of lower body strength in generally active, community-dwelling older adults.
