The Effects of Whole Body Vibration Combined with Resistance Training in Mild to Moderate Knee Osteoarthritis or Total Knee Arthroplasty as Measured by the Timed Up and Go: A Meta-Analysis
2020
Overview
Purpose: This meta-analysis studied the efficacy of Whole Body Vibration (WBV) used with resistance training in improving the functional mobility of individuals with mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis or having undergone total knee arthroplasty. Methods: To do this, we compared the performance on the Timed Up and Go test to participants receiving an intervention of only resistance training. 4 studies were chosen to be analyzed after the most recent meta-analyses. Results: The results showed no significant treatment effect. Large treatment effect sizes favoring WBV were found in each of the 4 articles, however, although this data was heterogeneous. Discussion: Three of the studies included in this metaanalysis reported a significant reduction in TUG times when compared to baseline, with 1 study reporting a significant improvement when compared to the RT control group after 24 weeks. This information indicates physical therapists should strongly consider WBV as an adjunct treatment when working with patients of these populations.
