NCT07293195
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the adjunctive effects of heat therapy and contrast therapy when combined with the Otago exercise program in individuals with patellofemoral pain syndrome aged 18 to 40 years. The study aims to assess whether these interventions can help reduce pain and swelling, improve knee range of motion, and decrease functional limitations associated with patellofemoral pain syndrome. Researchers will compare two groups one receiving heat therapy with the Otago exercise program and the other receiving contrast therapy with the Otago exercise program to see which approach provides greater improvement in outcomes. Participants will undergo regular supervised sessions that include the assigned thermal therapy and a structured set of Otago exercises targeting lower limb strength, balance, and mobility.
NCT06744257
The primary aim is to determine if online patient education is a feasible intervention for people with PFP awaiting physiotherapy. The secondary aim is to provide outcome data to inform a future substantiative trial.
NCT05168332
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)
NCT06197958
Patellofemoral pain syndrome is due to dysfunctional dynamic knee valgus resulting from decrease in strength of hip abductors or abnormal rear-foot eversion with pes pronatus valgus. It is also associated with vastus medialis/vastus lateralis disbalance, hamstring tightness or iliotibial tract tightness.
NCT05112978
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.
NCT04760158
We included in this study 42 individuals with patellofemoral pain syndrome. 39 of them were completed six weeks of exercise and other groups. We randomized them into three groups. One group is the star technique which is a new patellar taping technique. Another group is placebo taping and the third group is only the exercise group. Both groups performed exercises three times a week for six weeks. Three groups were assessed with knee and hip muscles strength, shortness, performance tests, pain severity in the activity, night, rest, and knee-buckling, and Kujala Scale before and after 4-week exercises.
NCT04624542
1. to investigate the relation between NCV of femoral nerve and other dependent variables such as ( pain \& limited hip extension ROM )in patients with PFPS . 2. to predict using the NCV as a method for assessment femoral nerve mechanosensitivity in those with PFPS
NCT04031248
The present study will consist of evaluating the effect of applying an exercise protocol on a vibratory platform in order to provoke immediate influences in the affected systems and in the quality of life of the patients with patella-femoral pain.
