Abstract :
Genu Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease
of the knee joint due to the abrasion of joint cartilage
and the formation of new bone on the joint surface
which can cause muscle and tendon weakness so that
movement is limited and causes pain. Degenerative
diseases of the genu can cause the erosion of the articular
surface, this will cause pain and swelling in the genu.
This research method is pure experimental with
randomized pre-test and post-test group design. Samples
of this study is 13 patients were given Ultrasound (US)
and Static Bicycle Exercise 6 times for 2 weeks.
Physiotherapy examinations and measurements were
carried out using the WOMAC Index (Western Ontario
and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index). The
results showed an increase in knee functional activity
before and after treatments with the normality test using
the Shapiro-Wilk test with
