Sponsor's own description
This study aims to evaluate the implementation and effectiveness of a self-administered acupressure (SAA) program for knee osteoarthritis (OA) among older adults in Hong Kong community centers. Using a pragmatic cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT) and mixed-methods approach, the research will assess the reach, adoption, implementation, maintenance, and effectiveness of the SAA program in real-world settings, with the goal of informing scalable interventions for knee OA management.
