Objectives

Narrative objectives1

Estimates indicate that 253 million patients in Japan are diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis based on plain radiographs Among musculoskeletal disorders osteoarthritis including knee osteoarthritis is the leading cause of disability requiring long term care certification Knee orthotic therapy for patients with knee osteoarthritis is established as a common treatment method but research demonstrating scientific evidence is insufficient and its general applicability is low This study aims to contribute to measures concerning orthotic therapy for knee osteoarthritis by measuring and understanding the effects of knee orthoses worn by patients with knee osteoarthritis
