Who cannot take part
Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.
Age
- We suggest not to include grade III meniscal injury as it is supposed that they need more physical therapy sessions. Ages above 40 is excluded to exclude arthritic changes. Presence of any other knee injury or systemic diseases affecting joints (e.g. rheumatoid arthritis) will be excluded. Patients with body mass index (BMI) more than 30 will be excluded as their knees may have some arthritic changes and need longer PT sessions.
Who the study is looking for
- grade I or II knee meniscal tear assessed by MRI according to radiologist report, positive McMurray's test assessed by physical therapist and aged from 18 to 60 years.
Age in the registry: 18 years to 60 years · Sex: All · Does not accept healthy volunteers
