This study will be the first project to investigate the effect of functional strength training of hip abductors on pain, function, hip, and knee kinematics including contra-lateral pelvic drop angle (hip frontal plane projection angle) and dynamic knee valgus (knee frontal plane projection angle) in runners with medial tibial stress syndrome patients.
The medial tibial stress syndrome (MTSS) score was originally developed in Dutch to assess severity of disease relative to patient-reported outcome, particularly patients with MTSS. The purpose of this study was to translate and cross-culturally adapt the MTSS score into Turkish and investigate its psychometric properties.
This project was a Randomized control trial conducted to check the effects of therapeutic ultrasound versus shockwave therapy on pain , range of motion and function in recreational runners with medial tibial stress syndrome so that we can formulate a better and most effective regime for treatment of medial tibial stress. Duration was of 6 months, convenient sampling was done, subject following eligibility criteria from Ghurki Trust teaching hospital, horizon hospital and surgimed hospital. Group A participants were given baseline treatment along with shockwave and Group B were given baseline treatment along with therapeutic ultrasound. Assesment was done at baseline and at 2nd week and 6th week post-interrvention . Assessment was done via, Numeric pain rating scale(NPRS), Lower Extermity functional scale LEFS ) and goniometric measurements of shoulder ranges, data was analyzed by using SPSS version 26.
This study will be the first project to evaluate the effectiveness of wearable technology (Garmin Forerunner35) while performing gait retraining in field on military members. The watch will provide real time feedback to the runner on their step rate while performing running sessions outside of the lab. This allows the runner to modify their step rate to meet a recommended step rate provided by the study team member. Aim 1: To demonstrate the utility of wearable sensors to modify running step rate through real time biofeedback. Aim 2: To determine whether altering step rate using real time biofeedback reduces lower extremity musculoskeletal injury reoccurrence within 1 year post training.
Medial tibial stress syndrome (MTSS) also known as shin splints or tibial periostitis is a common injury in athletes and soldiers/cadets with incidences ranging between 4% and 35% in these populations . It is characterized by pain in the middle and lower end of tibia; the pain is usually elicited by practicing sports or other physical activities. The criteria for diagnosis for MTSS were established by Yates and White. Although the prognosis of MTSS is usually benign, it can evolve to chronicity and be disabling. Several studies have demonstrated the effects of different medical treatment in athletes and cadets with MTSS. Study will correspond to the demonstration of treatment options for medial tibial stress syndrome that lie in the domain of Physical Therapy. Therapeutic Ultrasound and Shortwave Diathermy.
The overarching purpose of this project is to use sensor-derived patterns to guide running interventions during in-field training scenarios for runners with exercise-related lower leg pain. The investigators plan to use the RunScribe sensors to facilitate in-field gait-training to determine the effects of real-time gait-training interventions along with a home exercise program (intervention group) on biomechanical and patient-reported outcome measures of pain and function in runners with leg pain as opposed to receiving a home exercise program alone (control group).
The investigators want to investigate whether the KB2 acupuncture protocol is an effective method for decreasing pain and improving physical function in adult subjects with medial tibial stress syndrome. The investigators hypothesize that there will be significant improvement in both the acute and long-term timeframes, with respect to measures of pain and function. The investigators will measure shin pain immediately prior to treatment (baseline), immediately after initial treatment, one-, two-, and four-weeks following treatment, then again at three months post-treatment. Functional status will be evaluated at the above intervals using the Pain Disability Index. The Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome (MTSS) Score is a newly developed scoring system for subject-reported outcomes in evaluating treatment of MTSS, and this will be used to evaluate pain relief and physical functional status at initial treatment (baseline) and again at the four-week follow-up. If at the four-week follow-up no significant improvement is noted, subjects in the non-acupuncture treatment group will be given the option to crossover to another KB2 acupuncture treatment regimen, with follow-up as previously noted.
Aims & objectives: 1. The aim of the study is to find out the influence of fascial manipulation on running kinematics among athletes with medial tibial stress syndrome (MTSS). 2. The objectives of our study are i. To use fascial manipulation as a mode of treatment in MTSS. ii. To compare running kinematics before and after treatment intervention. iii. To compare pain perception before and after treatment intervention.
This project aims to investigate whether an increase in step rate can be used to reduce pain and injury causing movement patterns in runners who are currently experiencing achilles tendonopathy, iliotibial band syndrome, patellofemoral pain syndrome and medial tibial stress syndrome. Many injuries have been reported to share similar injury causing movement patterns. For example iliotibial band syndrome and patellofemoral pain syndrome have been reported to be caused by increased side to side drop of the pelvis and inward movement of the hip. Gait retraining is a method of changing the way people run in order to change movement patterns.Increasing step rate may present a gait retraining method that does not pose further injury risks and can be used across multiple different injury populations. Studies have shown increasing step rate can reduce frontal plane movement patterns at the pelvis, hip and foot as well as reducing sagittal plane joint angles such as ankle dorsiflexion. Based on the changes in movement patterns increasing step rate has been recommended as an intervention for the treatment of patellofemoral pain syndrome, medial tibial stress syndrome, iliotibial band syndrome and achilles tendonopathy. Therefore this study aims to investigate whether an increase in step rate can reduce pain and change injury causing mechanics in runners currently running with patellofemoral pain syndrome, iliotibial band syndrome, medial tibial stress syndrome or achilles tendinopathy. The aim of the project is to use a simple gait intervention, increasing step rate to investigate if this technique change can reduce pain immediately, at short term follow up and long term follow up. The project will also look at whether an increased step rate can be maintained at follow up and whether this changes movement patterns proposed to be the cause of injury. Runners will be recruited from local running clubs and competitions using poster advertisement at running clubs and emailed to running clubs
