The aim of the randomized controlled study is to investigate the effects of the cycle ergometer with biofeedback on deep sensation in elderly people who has knee osteoarthritis
Participants will be randomly divided and registered into 2 groups: Thera-train tigo group (TG) or control group(CP)
For 20 participants 20 minute tens, 5 minute ultrasound, 10 times with 2 sets quadriceps isometric exercise will be applied. The other 20 participants will use Thera-train tigo for 20 minute in addition to tens, us, quadriceps isometric exercise.
Conditions of the participants will be measured before(1st day) and after(15th day) a span of 3 week treatment. We will use Demographic Information Questionnaire, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities (WOMAC) osteoarthritis index, Physical Activity Scale for the Eldery (PASE) and 6 minute walking test for all patients. Then we will measure knee vibration sense with diapason. Knee joint position sense will be measured with a digital goniometer.

| Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation | Device | Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation will be used for the reduction of pain. TENS will be used 5 times in a week for 3 weeks. Each procedure will take 20 minutes. |
|
|
| Ultrasound | Device | Ultrasound will be used for increase the permeability of cells to treat pain and inflammation. US will be used 5 times in a week for 3 weeks. Each procedure will take 5 minutes |
|
|
| Isometric exercises | Other | The aim of the isometric exercises is increasing muscle strength. Each session patients will do quadriceps isometric exercises 5 times in a week for 3 weeks |
|
Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly (PASE) will be used to evaluate the physical activities of individuals. Higher scores show the higher physical activity level.
