5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Using a double-blind, randomized controlled design to investigate the additional therapeutic effects of 3 times of combined triamcinolone and hyaluronic acid injections to 3 times of hyaluronic acid injections to patients with knee osteoarthritis.
Detailed Description
A total of 56 patients will be enrolled and randomized into two groups, including 3 times of triamcinolone combined hyaluronic acid injections group and 3 times of hyaluronic acid injections group. The triamcinolone combined hyaluronic acid injections group will receive 3 times of triamcinolone combined hyaluronic acid injection per week in three weeks; the hyaluronic acid group will receive hyaluronic acid injection in three weeks. Physical activities and functional performance will be evaluated at before injection, at after one week, one month, three months, and six months of completion of 3 times of injections.
