Efficacy of Knee Taping in addition to a Supervised Exercise Protocol to Manage Pain and Functional Status in Individuals with Patellofemoral Osteoarthritis: A Randomized, Controlled Clinical Trial

Table 3

Comparison of VAS and WOMAC functional status (mean ± SD) scores between Groups A and B using unpaired t-test.

Outcomes	Scores at 4 weeks postintervention			Unpaired t-test
	Group A (n = 20)	Group B (n = 20)	∆MD (A vs. B)	t value	value
VAS	2.92 ± 0.97	5.65 ± 2.26	−2.73 ± −1.29	−9.17	<0.05
WOMAC-FS	13.9 ± 3.07	19.85 ± 4.70	−5.95 ± −1.63	−5.86	<0.05

Significant value if ; ∆MD: mean difference; SD: standard deviation; WOMAC-FS: The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritic Index—functional status.
