Anterior Knee Pain Syndrome Clinical Trial
Official title:
Lumbar Thrust-mobilization Effects on Hip Strength and Anterior Knee Pain, a Double Blind Randomized Control Trial
The purpose of this study is to investigate changes in lateral hip muscle strength as well as
self-reported pain during the performance of three functional tests in patients with anterior
knee pain following a lumbopelvic thrust-mobilization.
Hypothesis(es):
Lumbar thrust-mobilization will lead to increased lateral hip strength and decreased anterior
knee pain during 3 functional activities (single leg step down, functional squat, drop jump).

Pre-intervention, immediately following intervention, 15 min post-intervention & 30 min post-intervention | |
Primary | Change in pain with double leg squat | Subject will provide level of anterior knee pain via Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) while performing a double leg squat. The VAS pain scale is a 0 to 10 scale, 0 indicates no pain, 5 indicates distressing pain, 10 indicates unbearable pain. Any whole number between 0 and 10 may be chosen. 0 is better and 10 is worse. |
Pre-intervention, immediately following intervention, 15 min post-intervention & 30 min post-intervention | |
Primary | Change in pain with drop jump from 2 foot platform | Subject will provide level of anterior knee pain via Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) while performing a drop jump from a 2 foot platform. The VAS pain scale is a 0 to 10 scale, 0 indicates no pain, 5 indicates distressing pain, 10 indicates unbearable pain. Any whole number between 0 and 10 may be chosen. 0 is better and 10 is worse. |
