Abstract

Introduction: Osteoarthrosis (OA) is a pathological disorder characterized by localized loss of cartilage, remodeling of adjacent bone, formation of osteophytes and associated inflammation. It manifests as molecular derangement followed by anatomical and physiological alterations, characterized by cartilage degradation, bone remodeling, formation of osteophytes, inflammation of the joints and loss of normal joint function. Objective: To review the literature evaluating the influence of physical therapy on the treatment of individuals with knee OA and its impact on quality of life, identifying the different treatments for knee OA. Methods: A literature review study was carried out in the Pubmed, Pedro, Scielo and Cochrane Library databases, with clinical trials with publication date from 2014 to 2018 with the keywords: osteoarthritis of knee, physical therapy and quality of life. Patients with a diagnosis of knee OA, >50 years, of both genders, who reported information on treatment and quality of life, were chosen. Results: We selected 12 articles on 224 for analysis. Conclusion: Studies demonstrated the efficacy of exercise and education in improving the symptoms of osteoarthritis, such as pain, improvement of physical function and quality of life.
