A systematic review on the effects of non-pharmacological interventions for fatigue among people with upper and/or lower limb osteoarthritis

20241 citationOpen accessRedeemer's University

Abstract

Diverse interventions for fatigue management among individuals with upper and lower limb OA were identified. Of these, exercise interventions appear to be the most promising with the majority of these interventions favouring fatigue improvement. While cognitive behavioural therapy has limited evidence of beneficial effects, there is insufficient evidence regarding the effectiveness of other identified interventions, including complementary and alternative therapies, and telerehabilitation.
