Anterior Knee Pain or Patellofemoral Pain (PFP) is one of the most common disorders that affecting knee in the physically active population, being a condition that typically presents as diffuse knee pain in the anterior region and retro- or peri-patellar area, mainly in activities that increase compression force in patellofemoral joint, such as squatting, running, stair ascent and descent. The overall prevalence of PFP has been reported as between 15-45% of the population, and its incidence is higher among women. The literature cites as etiology of PFP the ocorrence of dysfunctions in the local (knee), proximal (trunk, pelvis and hip complex) and distal (ankle and foot regions) factores. Actually, there is a lack of studies that investigate the interventions influences on distal factors in outcomes clinical in persons with PFP. Thus, the aim of this study is analyze the effect of ankle mobilization techiniques in ankle dorsiflexion range of motion closed kinetic chain in women with patellofemoral pain and with dorsoflexion restriction.

Primary | Range of motion of ankle dorsiflexion. | Closed kinetic chain evaluation to find the greatest distance between the foot and the wall without compensations. | Immediatly after intervention day. | |
Secondary | Range of motion of ankle dorsiflexion. | Closed kinetic chain evaluation to find the greatest distance between the foot and the wall without compensations. | Two days after intervention day. | |
Secondary | Angle of projection in the frontal plane in the lower limb. | Will be measured during the conduct of the Forward Step-Down Test through captured footage using a digital camera that will be positioned within two meters of the participant. | Immediatly and two days after intervention day. | |
Secondary | Numeric Pain Scale. | Pain was assessed by use of an Numeric Pain Scale of eleven point, where zero corresponded to no pain and ten corresponded to worst imaginable pain | Immediatly and two days after intervention day. | |
Secondary | Global Effect Perception Scale for Treatment | Global Effect Perception Scale for Treatment was assessed by use f an numeric scale of eleven point, where the lowest score corresponds to the extremely worst condition and the highest score corresponds to the fully recovered condition. | Immediatly and two days after intervention day. |
