The \u201canti-inflammatory effect\u201d program was used with wavelengths of 808 nm, 1064 nm and 1120 nm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Patients were evaluated before treatment and 22 days later using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain, the KOOS and WOMAC questionnaires, and instrumental gait analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following the treatment cycle, statistically significant improvements were observed: the median VAS score decreased from 6 to 3, the KOOS score increased from 53 to 68, and the WOMAC score decreased from 23.5 to 15. Statistically significant changes were also observed in selected biomechanical gait parameters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The authors conclude that, in this study, laser therapy reduced pain and improved symptoms and selected gait parameters. At the same time, they highlight the need for further studies with larger patient populations and longer follow-up periods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\"  class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/www.qmd-medicaldevice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/observational-study-effect-of-lasertherapy-on-gonarthrosis.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:600px\" aria-label=\"Embed of Observational Study - Effect of Lasertherapy on Gonarthrosis.\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-3672014e-1363-4a82-93d1-bbcb1c1e0239\" href=\"https:\/\/www.qmd-medicaldevice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/observational-study-effect-of-lasertherapy-on-gonarthrosis.pdf\">Observational Study &#8211; Effect of Lasertherapy on Gonarthrosis<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.qmd-medicaldevice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/observational-study-effect-of-lasertherapy-on-gonarthrosis.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-3672014e-1363-4a82-93d1-bbcb1c1e0239\">Herunterladen<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An observational study investigates the effects of laser therapy on pain, functionality and biomechanical parameters in patients with knee osteoarthritis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":3147,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3145","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-clinical-research"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.qmd-medicaldevice.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3145"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.qmd-medicaldevice.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.qmd-medicaldevice.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.qmd-medicaldevice.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.qmd-medicaldevice.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3145"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.qmd-medicaldevice.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3145\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4563,"href":"https:\/\/www.qmd-medicaldevice.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3145\/revisions\/4563"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.qmd-medicaldevice.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3147"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.qmd-medicaldevice.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3145"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.qmd-medicaldevice.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3145"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.qmd-medicaldevice.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3145"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
