Filter by:Non-selective closed kinetic chain exercises and or selective closed kinetic chain exercises has been shown to increase Vastus medialis obliquus muscle power in patellofemoral pain syndrome. However, the superiority of the exercises to each other has not been shown. This study aimed to evaluating the effects of different exercises on the stiffness of the Vastus medialis obliquus and vastus lateralis muscles, pain management, functional scores, and thigh circumferences.
The objective of this study is to compare a novel 6-week strength training rehabilitation incorporating power exercises (STRIPE) program to a standard of care (SOC) program on short-term and long-term pain, subjective function, patellofemoral pain recurrence rates, and secondary outcomes (hip abduction and extension rate of torque development and single-leg squat kinematics). We hypothesize that participants with patellofemoral pain who complete the STRIPE program will have 1) decreased pain, 2) improved subjective function, 3) reduced patellofemoral pain recurrence rates, 4a) improved hip abduction/extension rate of torque development, and 4b) decreased hip adduction and pelvic drop during a single leg squat compared to participants who complete a SOC rehabilitation program.
Purposes of the study To investigate the effect of adding Short foot exercise on patellofemoral pain syndrome on knee Pain, Function, Balance and abductors, quadriceps Muscle strength.
The aim of this randomized controlled study; To investigate the multifactorial effectiveness of core stabilization exercises applied in patients diagnosed with patellofemoral pain syndrome. 20/60 years old/with retropatellar pain that occurs during at least two of the activities and persists for at least one month While patients diagnosed with patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) were included in the study; Patients with meniscus and ligament lesions, osteoarthritis, patellofemoral dislocation and/or subluxation history, osseous anomalies and history of knee surgery, pregnancy status, and patients using analgesics and anti-inflammatory drugs will not be included in the study. Individuals will be divided into two groups by computerized randomization. Control group; Traditional patellofemoral pain syndrome exercises, (n=20) Core stability group; Core stabilization and hip exercises will be given in addition to traditional patellofemoral pain syndrome exercises. (n=20) After obtaining the demographic information of the cases, before and after the treatment; Visual analog scale (VAS) change, Kuala scale change, Trunk forward flexion flexibility change, Hamstring muscle flexibility change, Sit-reach test change, Q angle measurement change, Normal joint movement change, McGill stabilization tests change, Timed get up and go test change, Single leg jump test change, Y balance test change, Muscle strength change will be evaluated by the same person using the Corbin Posture analysis change and Foot posture index (FPI) change parameters. IMPLEMENTATION PROTOCOL 1. Control group; traditional patellofemoral pain syndrome exercises; isometric exercises 3 sets of 10 repetitions in one session, balance exercise 30/45 sec, one leg balance exercise 45/60 sec , stretching exercises 4 sets 5 repetitions 20 sec duration, off kinetic chain (CHC) AND open kinetic chain (ACZ) exercises were planned as 3 sets for 4 weeks and 3 days a week . 2. Core stability group; In addition to traditional patellofemoral pain syndrome exercises; hip muscle strengthening exercises are 3 sets of 10 repetitions in each session, and (core) stabilization exercises are 1st and 2nd weeks 2 sets 15 repetitions 3rd and 4th weeks 2 sets 5 repetition was planned for 4 weeks and 3 days a week. While the patients will be exercised with a physiotherapist 1 day a week, the treatment will be followed as a home exercise program 2 days a week.
The aim of this study is to investigate the association between tensiomyography parameters (from rectus femoris, vastus lateralis and vastus medialis) and functional abilities in runners with patellofemoral pain syndrome.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of myofascial release techniques applied on the superficial anterior myofascial chain of the body on pain, functional status, posture, biomechanical and viscoelastic properties of myofascial tissues in patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome. There will be two groups in this study. Each group will consist of 30 patients aged 25-50 years with patellofemoral pain syndrome. A total of 60 participants will take part in the study. Conventional physiotherapy will be applied to the control group, while myofascial release techniques will be applied to the experimental group in addition to conventional physiotherapy. Treatment programs will be applied to both groups 2 days a week for 6 weeks. Postural problems that can be seen in the superficial anterior myofascial chain line will be evaluated. These problems: forward head, q-angle, genu varum, genu valgum, foot postural problems and pelvic tilt. In addition to all these assessments, knee pain, lower extremity functionality and biomechanical properties of the anterior myofascial tissue will be evaluated.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the myofascial chain lines in addition to the general evaluation parameters in patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) and to determine whether deviations from normal in the myofascial structure have an effect on the development of PFPS. There will be two groups in this study. One of the groups will consist of 28 patients aged between 25-50 years. The other group will consist of 28 healthy individuals between the ages of 25-50 years. Postural problems that can be seen in the superficial anterior myofascial chain line will be evaluated. These problems: forward head, q-angle, genu varum, genu valgum, foot postural problems (pes planus, pes kavus vb.) and pelvic tilt. In addition to all these assessments, knee pain and the biomechanical properties of the anterior myofascial tissue will be evaluated.
The purpose of this graduate student research study is to investigate the relationship between limited ankle dorsiflexion and the potential effects on a single limb squat task in the Patellofemoral/Knee Pain population.
A double blinded clinical controlled trial will be performed on individuals with patello femoral pain syndrome in which Trigger Point Dry Needling will be given to experimental group while Sham Needling will be given to the control group, targeting the trigger points present in the Quadriceps of affected individuals assessing the pain,functional disability and range of motion of the affected individuals.
The purpose of the study is to compare the effects of routine physical therapy with and without core stability exercises on pain and range of motion, in patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome. The spine, abdominal region, pelvis, hips, and proximal lower extremities, are defined as the core of the body. The effects of core muscle strengthening have been proven as an effective method of management in various cases. The knee is the frequently injured joint in core instability with the decreased hip strength. Deficiency in the control of the neuromuscular system of the body's trunk or "core" may affect the stability of the lower extremity, which can lead to injury in the tibiofemoral or patellofemoral joints.
