This study aims to compare the effectiveness and safety of High-Intensity Laser Therapy (HILT) with conventional physical therapy treatments in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Knee osteoarthritis is a common condition, especially in older adults, causing pain, stiffness, reduced movement, and difficulty performing daily activities. Current treatments focus on reducing pain and improving joint function. In this study, 100 patients with knee osteoarthritis will be divided into two groups. One group will receive HILT combined with therapeutic exercises, while the other group will receive conventional physical therapy modalities along with the same exercises. The treatment outcomes will be evaluated over time. The main outcomes include pain reduction (measured by pain scales such as WOMAC and VAS), improvement in joint function, and structural changes in the knee assessed by MRI. In addition, laboratory tests will be used to measure inflammation, cartilage health markers, and oxidative stress before and after treatment. The goal is to determine whether HILT provides better pain relief, improves joint function, and is safe compared to standard therapy. The results may help improve rehabilitation strategies for patients with knee osteoarthritis.

Approximately 20-30% of patients experience persistent pain after a Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA). This study investigates whether percutaneous cryoneurolysis of genicular nerves can reduce pain and improve physical function when performed at least 24 hours before surgery. Participants will be randomized to receive either the cryoneurolysis procedure + TKA or TKA only. Results will be tracked for 6 months to see if the intervention improves long-term recovery and quality of life.

Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a very common operation that increases in frequency with advancing age. Similar to other surgical procedures, strategies are being developed to minimize morbidity and mortality while allowing for rapid recovery and early hospital discharge. TKA causes moderate to severe postoperative pain for most patients. The goal of pain control after TKA is to provide excellent analgesia, early mobilization and rehabilitation, and to minimize opioid use, including overprescription of opioids after discharge Multimodal, opioid-sparing strategies for postoperative pain control include regional analgesia techniques (e.g., peripheral nerve blocks, LA infiltration, continuous epidural analgesia, neuraxial opioids) in addition to multimodal systemic analgesics. Periarticular injection (PAI), also called local infiltration analgesia, and adductor canal block (ACB), a peripheral nerve block, are increasingly used as a component of multimodal postoperative analgesia and have been shown to reduce pain scores and opioid consumption after TKA. However, the impact of these modalities on the quality of postoperative recovery is unknown. The most widely used method of measuring this is the quality of recovery 40 (QoR 40) questionnaire. This questionnaire places increasing emphasis on measuring overall patient recovery and how quickly a patient can return to daily life after anesthesia and surgery. Numerous studies have used the postoperative QoR-40 to compare different methods of anesthesia, adjuvants, regional analgesic techniques, and other factors on patient recovery and have been validated in Turkish.

The COVID-19 pandemic widely affected delivery mode of healthcare services. While fewer number of patients were allowed to attend face-to-face rehabilitation sessions, some services were totally unavailable due to the safety measures. The COVID-19 crisis highlighted the value and accelerated the improvement of "tele-assessment and tele-rehabilitation" applications. Consequently, reliable remote assessment approaches were required to evaluate the effectiveness of the remote programs. While tests such as TUG, SLS, and 30CST are valid and reliable for clinical use in patients with knee OA, their psychometric properties are yet to be investigated when used as tele-assessment tests. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the intra- and inter-rater reliability of the TUG, SLS, and 30CST as remote tests in patients with knee OA.
