Abstract
Introduction. Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFS) is multifactorial condition and one of the most common causes of knee pain [1]. PFS is associated with lower extremity changes in strenght, flexibility and neuromuscular function. Long lasting pain can disrupt muscular function and intermuscular coordination [2]. “Best Practice Guide” recommends multimodal intervention in PFS to involve taping as a beneficial method in combination with exercises [3]. Research aim: to evaluate the effect of Mulligan knee taping technique on knee pain intensity and knee function in patellofemoral pain syndrome. Research methods and organization. Subjects aged between 17 and 45 were eligible for inclusion if they satisfied these criteria: 1) Chondromalacia patella, retropatellar or peripatellar pain; 2) Knee pain for longer than six weeks; 3) Pain during at least two activities: prolonged sitting, ascendingdescending stairs, squatting, jumping and/or running; 4) Pain intensity equal or higher than 3 according to numeric pain rating scale (NPRS). All subjects were informed about the research and signed the informed consent form. Ethical approval was obtained from Lithuanian University of Health Sciences ethics committee. Subjects were divided into two groups: KT group consisted of 11 subjects (age 28.73±3.44 year, BMI 22.3±2.8) received exercise program five times per two weeks and TP group consisted of 11 subjects (age 26.45±4.55 year, BMI 23±1.5) received the same exercise program of the same duration with additionally added Mulligan knee taping technique. All tests were performed three times: before therapy, after therapy and one week follow up after the therapy. Demographic data and anterior knee pain (Kujala) questionnaires were used. Pain intensity was measured with NPRS while lower extremity function by single leg hop and Y balance anterior reach tests. Statistical data analysis was performed using IBM SPSS Statistics [...].
