Filter by:This randomized controlled trial will compare the mid- and long-term effects of group-based training programs with usual individual physiotherapy care for the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders in military. One hundred and twenty soldiers presenting one of the four targeted musculoskeletal disorders (low back pain, rotator cuff related pain, patellofemoral pain syndrome or lateral ankle sprain) will be recruited and randomly assigned to either a 12-weeks group-based training program or 12-weeks usual individual physiotherapy care.
The aim of this research is to interpret and make Kujala Questionnaire adaptable culturally into Urdu to investigate its validity and reliability in Pakistani population among anterior knee pain or patello femoral knee pain. Also check its correlation with 36-Item Short Form Health Survey questionnaire, Lysholm Knee Scoring Scale and 2000 International Knee Documentation Committee Subjective Knee Evaluation Form.
Patellofemoral pain syndrome is one of the most common young adult female complaints, caused by changes in the patellofemoral joint's physical and biomechanical properties. This study compared the Short-term effects of patellar taping combined with isometric contraction of quadriceps muscle strengthening at 900 or 600 knee angles on quadriceps strength and functional performance in a female patient with patello-femoral pain syndrome (PFPS)
The aim of this research is to compare the effects of kinesiotaping and mulligan taping on pain, hamstring flexibility, cadence and physical performance of lower limb in patients suffering from patellofemoral pain syndrome according to time duration 24, 48 and 72 hours. Randomized controlled trial done at Riphah International University Rawalpindi campus, Pakistan Railway Hospital and private clinics of twin cities. The sample size was 20. The subjects were divided in two groups, 10 subjects in kinesiotaping group and 10 in mulligan taping group. Study duration was 1 year. Sampling technique applied was non probability convenient sampling technique. Both males and females of 20-35 age bracket having anterior knee pain for more than 2 months and ≥3 pain on NPRS while performing activities i.e. ascending descending stairs, squatting and sitting for extending periods of time were included in study. Tools used in study are NPRS, Kujala pain rating sale, goniometer, active knee extension test, time up and go test.
Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is one of the most common musculoskeletal pain conditions that tend to become a chronic problem. PFPS is common among young adolescents, particularly in physically active individuals aged 12 to 17 years old with more prevalence among females, as it affects females 1.5 - 3 times when compared to males.
Restoration of patellar thickness is pivotal during a total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Several studies showed there are differences in the knee measurements between Asian and Western population. This study aims to evaluate the patellar dimension and Bristol Index of patellar width to thickness (BIPWiT) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in Asian population.
the study will be done to investigate the effect of hip adduction isometric contraction on the pain level by VAS and knee extensors peak torque by using the isokinetic dynamometer in patients with unilateral patellofemoral pain syndrome
The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of high-intensity laser therapy on pain and lower extremity function in the treatment of patellofemoral pain syndrome.
This study compared the effects of patellar taping and electromyographic-biofeedback (EMG-BF) guided isometric quadriceps strengthening at different knee angles in patello-femoral pain syndrome (PFPS).
The study aims to evaluate the effect of low load resistance training combined with blood flow restriction or sham blood flow restriction in patients with anterior knee pain and rotator cuff related shoulder pain in a cross-over two-arm randomized, participant and assessor blinded design. More specifically, we aim to investigate the acute and short-term hypoalgesic response (by evaluating pressure pain detection thresholds) of low load exercise with blood flow restriction or sham blood flow restriction, the effect of these interventions in pain during clinical testing, and the possibility of a placebo effect.
