The intervention protocol included patient education on the nature and treatment of KOA, therapeutic exercise, a weight loss programme for overweight patients, and a physical therapy programme. Participants were followed for 3\u00a0months. The Visual Analog Scale for Pain (VAS\u2010p), the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), and knee Kellgren\u2010Lawrence OA grading were measured before and after the intervention. Additionally, the Morisky adherence questionnaire and the WHO Multidimensional Framework for factors affecting adherence were assessed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>One fifty four participants with KOA were randomly allocated into intervention and control groups. A low level of adherence was detected in both groups (68.8% in the intervention group vs. 84.4% in the control group). Patients who followed the interventional programme were more adherent. Adherence to therapy was associated with a reduction in the Visual Analog Scale for Pain (VAS\u2010p) (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.016) and improved function as measured by WOMAC (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.018). Factors primarily associated with patient non\u2010adherence included unemployment (67.8%), low income (59.3%), no previous response to therapy (58.5%), less frequent follow\u2010up visits (55.1%), lack of insurance (66.9%), difficult access to services (59.3%), and high cost of services (55.1%).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Adherence to treatment in OA patients is a significant concern and a common problem, appearing to be associated more with socioeconomic factors than with pain and function.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/msc.1954","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,15]],"date-time":"2024-10-15T13:59:34Z","timestamp":1729000774000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Impact of Health Education Programme on Adherence to Treatment in Knee Osteoarthritis: An Interventional Study on Egyptian Patients"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"22","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2280-5841","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Amany M.","family":"Ebaid","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine Rheumatology &amp; Rehabilitation Department Zagazig University  Zagazig Egypt"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mohamed A.","family":"Mortada","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine Rheumatology &amp; Rehabilitation Department Zagazig University  Zagazig Egypt"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fadya A.","family":"Abd\u2010Ghani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine Rheumatology &amp; Rehabilitation Department Zagazig University  Zagazig Egypt"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Somaya A.","family":"Ali","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine Rheumatology &amp; Rehabilitation Department Zagazig University  Zagazig Egypt"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_14_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0019634"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_3_1","first-page":"10","article-title":"Criteria for Classification of Clinical Osteoarthritis","volume":"27","author":"Altman R.
