HeLP-knee (Healthy Lifestyle Program for knee pain prevention) - a sustainable low-intensity self-management lifestyle intervention for reducing the burden of knee pain in the community

膝关节疼痛是一种缺乏有效治疗的常见健康问题，是未来膝关节疼痛、残疾以及不良关节和健康结果的预测因素。对于早期膝关节疼痛的可持续、低强度预防性干预，存在迫切的未满足需求。我建议在社会经济地位低和超重/肥胖或早期膝关节疼痛的农村地区的男性和女性中调整和实施HeLP-her，应用新的分娩模式，以减轻社区膝关节疼痛的负担。

Knee pain, a common health problem lacking of effective therapy, is a predictor of future knee pain, disability, and adverse joint and health outcomes. There is an urgent unmet need for a sustainable, low-intensity preventive intervention for early knee pain. I propose to adapt and implement the HeLP-her in men and women of low socioeconomic status and rural regions who are overweight/obese or have early knee pain, applying new delivery modes, to reduce the burden of knee pain in the community.
