Abstract: BACKGROUND: Osteoarthritis (OA) knee joint is one of the major clinical problems in developing country. The World Health Organization is describe as Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint condition. It causes pain, swelling and stiffness, affecting a person’s ability to move freely. OA Knee is affect to person that locomotion problems. In the middle old age group people affected more in OA Knee. We can manage or treat the patient by exercise therapy in earlier stage. AIM & OBJECTIVE: To find out Effectiveness of quadriceps strengthening exercises with 3kg weight on sitting position to reduce pain in Osteoarthritis knee patients. Methodology: 25 subjects of age group 50 - 60 years were selected, who fulfilled the inclusion Criteria. Out of the 25 patients 15 subjects who were unilateral OA Knee and also those who scored between 6-8 in Visual Analog Scale (VAS). 15 subjects who selected were treated quadriceps strengthening exercises with 3kg weight on sitting position for a period of 4 weeks. The pre-test and post-test measurement was taken using VAS scale. RESULT: The pre-test and post-test mean values of VAS scale scored was analyzed using the paired ‘t’ test. For 14 degrees of freedom and 5% level of significance, the table’s’ value is 1.729 and calculated ‘t’ value 39.27. Since the calculated’ value was greater than table’s’ value null hypothesis is rejected. CONCLUSION: This study it can be concluded that quadriceps strengthening exercises with 3kg weight on sitting position to reduce pain in Osteoarthritis knee patients.
