Clinical Trial Summary

Chondromalacia patella (CMP) is a common condition in patients presenting to healthcare units with anterior knee pain (1).


Description:

Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is the most common type of pain in runners with a prevalence of 17%; it is limited to the anterior knee or the area behind the patella between the edges of the patella. Although PFPS and CMP are often considered to be the same disease, there is still controversy about the subject. It is caused by decreased quadriceps muscle strength, change in mechanical loading, lower limb kinematics and differentiation in muscle activation patterns during running .

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary WOMAC The Turkish version of the WOMAC scale will be used to evaluate the pain, stiffness and physical function of the individuals included in the study. The score of each section is calculated within itself and the total score varies between 0 and 100. High scores indicate an increase in pain and stiffness and impairment in physical function (12,13). 3 weeks
Primary Stair climbing test Stair ascent and descent test: The patient's ascent and descent time of the 11-step staircase with a height of 14 cm and a depth of 29 cm were recorded separately with a stopwatch. 3 weeks
Primary Range of motion of the joint Knee joint range of motion will be measured with a goniometer. 3 weeks
Primary Star balance test The test is a simple but time-consuming test in terms of its application and is used to measure dynamic postural balance (1). The test is based on the ability to reach the farthest possible distance on the supporting leg with the free foot in 8 different directions 3 weeks
Primary Horizontal jump test They jump to the farthest distance they can jump using their single and double legs and the best result obtained after at least 2 trials is recorded in cm. In this test, it should be noted that when contact with the ground after the jump, the measurement should be made at the heel level of the back foot, which is close to the starting line. Another point to be considered is that the participant should be stationary at the starting line. The participant cannot come to the line running and jump. But it is allowed to make a springing movement in front of the line 3 weeks
