Start date: June 10, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Purpose: The aim of this study is to figure out how does the selection of lower-extremity biomechanical variables presented by dynamic knee valgus, tibial torsion and navicular drop may influence pain, disability, and balance in women with patellofemoral pain syndrome. Methods: Sixty-five women with patellofemoral pain syndrome will be evaluated for lower limb biomechanical variables.

NCT ID: NCT05811637 Recruiting - Patellofemoral Pain Clinical Trials

Investigation of the Effect of Pilates Exercises on Patellofemoral Pain

Start date: January 30, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of Pilates exercises in Patellofemoral pain patients compared to hip and knee combined exercises in improving pain, muscle strength, flexibility, function and quality of life in short term.

NCT ID: NCT05778539 Completed - Clinical trials for Anterior Knee Pain Syndrome

Lateral Retinacular Release in Total Knee Arthroplasty With Patellar Replacement

Start date: October 1, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to assess the effect of systematic lateral retinacular release on anterior knee pain, as well as its impact on the functional and radiological outcomes after total knee arthroplasty with patellar resurfacing.

NCT ID: NCT05714397 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Anterior Knee Pain Syndrome

Effectiveness of Cingal™ for Improving Pain Scores and Function in Anterior Knee Pain

Start date: April 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Anterior Knee Pain (AKP) is a common condition that can be challenging to treat effectively. The main goal of treatment regimens is to improve the function of the knee. However, treatment can be challenging due to the knee pain experience. Cingal™ contains hyaluronic acid (HA), which acts as a joint lubricant, and the corticosteroid triamcinolone hexacetonide (TH). Some studies have shown that Cingal™ can improve joint function and provide short-term pain relief.

NCT ID: NCT05708495 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome

Ilium Mobilization in Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome Treatment

Start date: February 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Aim of the study is to investigate the effect of adding posterior ilium mobilization on knee pain, knee function, anterior pelvic tilt, dynamic knee valgus, muscle strength of extensors, abductors and external rotators of hip and knee extensors in patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome.

NCT ID: NCT05707039 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome

Comparison of Open and Closed Chain Exercises in Athletes With Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome

Start date: February 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is a common source of knee pain in the physically active population, predominantly in women. The incidence rate of PFPS among athletes is 25 percent, which is higher than that of general population. PFPS is caused by repetitive stress and aggravated in athletes by cycling and running. These symptoms are caused by structural or biomechanical changes of the joint, which becomes exacerbated by activities such as going up and down stairs, sit for a prolonged period, squatting or kneeling, resulting in increased compressive forces in the joint patellofemoral. It is characterized by defused pain in front of knee. Other signs also present are the patellar crepitus, swelling, and joint blockage despite being deemed a multifactorial condition with no single cure, PFPS is commonly attributed to muscular dysfunction, for which conservative rehabilitation is the treatment of choice. Historically, PFPS has been linked to impairments of the quadriceps muscle.

NCT ID: NCT05698797 Completed - Clinical trials for Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome

Proprioceptive Training vs. Hip Abductor With External Rotator Strengthening in Patients With Patellofemoral Pain

Start date: November 11, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is a common musculoskeletal disorder characterized by an insidious onset of pain in the knee's anterior /retro-patellar / peripatellar region. Even though various rehabilitation approaches, including hip strengthening and proprioceptive training, are being considered for managing PFPS, the most appropriate treatment from these two is still unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the program consisting of hip abductors and external rotators strengthening exercises vs. the program consisting of proprioceptive training of the knee to identify the most effective rehabilitation approach for patients suffering from PFPS.

NCT ID: NCT05665452 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome

Efficacy of Adding Patellar Mobilization to Hip and Knee Exercises in Patients With Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome

Start date: January 15, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Patellofemoral pain syndrome is a common source of anterior knee pain. The causes of PFPS may be multifactorial such as biomechanical disorders, muscle weakness which affect the dynamic stability of lower limb and alter patellar tracking in trochlear groove. Moreover, the syndrome associated with muscular tightness of iliotibial band, gastrocnemius, soleus, hamstring and quadriceps. Strengthening and stretching exercises are effective in improving patient's symptoms. However, they do not sufficient in correction of kinematic changes associated with PFPS. Patellar mobilization is effective in improving patient'symptoms in cases with PFPS. However, studies that conducted patellar mobilization were either low quality studies or no study combined patellar mobilization with hip and knee exercises. Therefore, APTA guidelines recommended for conducting high quality study to investigate the effect of adding patellar mobilization to exercise therapy to support the definite recommendation delivered to therapists.

NCT ID: NCT05629754 Enrolling by invitation - Clinical trials for Anterior Knee Pain Syndrome

10-year Follow-up After Tibial Tubercle Transposition

TTTfollow-up
Start date: November 18, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Patellofemoral pain is a common complaint especially in young adults. It can be caused by patellar maltracking. Part of this is a patella alta. When patellar maltracking is the cause of the problem and conservative therapy fails, surgery, a tibial tuberosity transposition, may be considered. Most research has been done in patients with recurrent patella luxation. However, in patients without luxation, research is scarce. It is known that patients with patella alta have an increased risk of developing patellofemoral chondropathy due to increased pressure. With this study, we aim to investigate whether and how a tibial tuberosity transposition in patients with patella alta and no instability affects the degree of patellofemoral chondropathy and patient satisfaction after 10 years. This will allow us to educate patients regarding long-term outcomes better.
