Ability of five times sit-to-stand to determine functional limitation in people with knee osteoarthritis
Main Article Content
Abstract
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA), the most common form of arthritis, affects the ability to fully use the lower extremities due to pain, muscle weakness, and deformity. With the ability of the five times sit-to-stand test (FTSST) to reflect functional lower limb strength, the researchers hypothesized that outcomes of the test could detect functional limitation in these individuals. Thus, this study explored the ability of the FTSST to determine functional limitation in individuals with KOA. Ninety-three participants with KOA were cross-sectionally assessed for their health status, KOA information, FTSST, and functional limitation using a standard measure, namely the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) questionnaire. The findings indicated that 64 participants were those with non-functional limitation, and the rest of them (n = 29) were those with functional limitation according to the data of WOMAC. Furthermore, outcomes of the FTSST ≥ 15 seconds could excellently determine those with functional limitation (sensitivity=79%, specificity=71%, and area under the curve=0.838). As being a practical measure of the FTSST, the present findings offer an alternative strategy to detect and monitor individuals with KOA who have functional limitation, as well as indicate treatment effectiveness for these individuals.
