Clinical and kinematic predictors of foot orthoses efficacy in individuals with patellofemoral pain syndrome
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background There is emerging evidence that foot orthoses are effective in the management of patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS), however the identification of those most likely to benefit from orthoses has not been adequately explored. The primary aim of this study was to develop a clinical prediction rule to help identify individuals with PFPS who are most likely to benefit from foot orthoses. The secondary aim was to determine whether kinematic measures of lower limb function are associated with foot orthoses efficacy.
