Résumé : |
Objectives To evaluate the long-term effect of high-dose, high-repetition medical exercise therapy (MET) in patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). Design Follow-up study one year after completion of a randomized, controlled trial. Setting Follow-up testing in the primary healthcare physiotherapy clinics, where intervention was undertaken. Participants Twenty-eight patients with PFPS completed follow-up testing, fourteen in each group. Interventions The groups received three treatments per week for 12 weeks: high-dose, high-repetition MET for the experimental group, and low-dose, low-repetition exercise therapy for the control group. Main outcome measures Pain measured using a visual analogue scale (VAS: 010 cm), and function measured using a step-down test (numbers of completed step-downs in 30 seconds) and the modified Functional Index Questionnaire (FIQ: 0 points indicates maximal disability, 16 points no disability). Results At baseline there were no differences between groups. After intervention, there were statistically significant (p Conclusion There appear to be long-term effects of high-dose, high-repetition MET in patients with PFPS with respect to pain and functional outcomes. One year after completed intervention the experimental group has continued to improve, while the control group has relapsed. |
