Kinematics associated with foot pronation in individuals with patellofemoral pain syndrome: a case-control study
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background Excessive foot pronation during gait is frequently linked to patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) development, due a proposed coupling of increased foot pronation with increased tibial and femoral internal rotation. However, there is a paucity of research which has compared kinematics associated with foot pronation between individuals with PFPS and controls. The aim of this study was to compare forefoot, rearfoot and tibial kinematics associated with foot pronation between individuals with PFPS and controls.

Purpose: Increased patellofemoral joint reaction force (PFJRF) is the main cause of patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFP). Foot pronation causes faulty joint coupling of the lower limb and increases the PFJRF. Therefore, the aim of systematic review is effect of the distal interventions on the clinical symptoms and kinematic of PFP patients. Methods: The search strategy was carried out from Goo...

BACKGROUND Foot posture assessment is commonly undertaken in clinical practice for the evaluation of individuals with patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS), particularly when considering prescription of foot orthoses. However, the validity of static assessment to provide insight into dynamic function in individuals with PFPS is unclear. This study was designed to evaluate the extent to which a st...
