Patellofemoral pain syndrome alters neuromuscular control and kinetics during stair ambulation.
The aim of the study was to investigate differences in frontal plane knee kinetics, onset timing and duration of the gluteus medius (GMed), adductor longus (AL), and vastus medialis oblique (VMO) during stair ambulation between those with and without patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). Twenty PFPS patients and twenty healthy participants completed stair ambulation while surface electromyograph...
متن کاملThe Effect of Kinesio Taping on Electromyography Activity and Co-Contraction of knee Muscles in People with Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome during climbing and descending stairs
Introduction and aim: Ascending and descending stairs are one of the challenging activities for people with patellofemoral pain syndrome. Kinesiotype is one of the rehabilitation methods to improve the symptoms of patellofemoral pain syndrome. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of kinesiotype on electromyographic activity and co-contraction of knee muscles in patients with patellofemoral ...
متن کاملReliability of measures of impairments associated with patellofemoral pain syndrome
BACKGROUND The reliability and measurement error of several impairment measures used during the clinical examination of patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) has not been established. The purpose was to determine the inter-tester reliability and measurement error of measures of impairments associated with PFPS in patients with PFPS. METHODS A single group repeated measures design ...
متن کاملReliability of parameters during stair ascent measured with Leonardo Mechanograph® Stair A in healthy subjects
OBJECTIVES Stair climbing (SC) as daily activity is assessed with different SC-tests, but none directly measures ground reaction force over several steps. The Leonardo Mechanograph Stair A has five steps and four force sensors. This study aimed at investigating the reliability of the Stair A test for force, power and time to SC. METHODS 55 healthy participants (age: 48±14 years) were five tim...
متن کاملInfluence of step height on quadriceps onset timing and activation during stair ascent in individuals with patellofemoral pain syndrome.
STUDY DESIGN A case control study, with single observation. OBJECTIVES To compare the onset timing and activation of the vastus medialis oblique (VMO) and vastus lateralis (VL) between subjects with and without patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) at various step heights. BACKGROUND It has been theorized that delayed or reduced VMO activity relative to the VL contributes to lateral patellar ...
