Résumé : |
Objectives To evaluate two different therapeutic exercise regimens in patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). Design Multicentre, randomised controlled clinical trial. Setting Three primary healthcare physiotherapy clinics. Participants Forty-two patients with PFPS were assigned at random to an experimental group or a control group. Forty participants completed the study. Interventions Both groups received three treatments per week for 12 weeks. The experimental group received high-dose, high-repetition medical exercise therapy, and the control group received low-dose, low-repetition exercise therapy. The groups differed in terms of number of exercises, number of repetitions and sets, and time spent performing aerobic/global exercises. Main outcome measures Outcome parameters were pain (measured using a visual analogue scale) and function [measured using the step-down test and the modified Functional Index Questionnaire (FIQ)]. Results At baseline, there were no differences between the groups. After the interventions, there were statistically significant (P Conclusion The results indicate that exercise therapy has a doseresponse effect on pain and functional outcomes in patients with PFPS. This indicates that high-dose, high-repetition medical exercise therapy is more efficacious than low-dose, low-repetition exercise therapy for this patient group.
