Abstract

ABSTRACT Introduction: Osteo Arthritis (OA) is a disease that is often found in the elderly which attacks joints and is chronic in nature, which has the characteristics of pain in the knee joint, stiffness, limited movement, crepitus, muscle weakness, and deformity of the knee joint. Diagnosis of OA can only be done by imaging examination, which is a radiological examination that is interpreted using the Kellgren-Lawrence scale, so that it can be distinguished based on joint space narrowing. Initial screening for this disease can use the Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) questionnaire, so that it can be distinguished between the population that needsto be tested by the gold standard to confirm the state of OA in these patients.
