Validity and Reliability of Autocad Software Assessment of JPS in PFPS

NCT03685812 | Completed

• 1 other identifier: patellofemoral pain syndrome
• Study Type: observational
• Target: 38
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

The overall aim of the study is to assess the reliability and validity of Autocad software to measure JPS in PFPS, especially:

1. 1.To assess the intra-tester and between day reliability of measurement of JPS using Autocad software.
2. 2.To assess the validity of these measurements against those found during an IKD.

Keywords

Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome; Autocad software; position sense; validity; reliability

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Concurrent validity of Autocad software

  correlation between absolute angular error of Autocad software and isokinetic system

  one day

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• Intrarater reliability of

  48 hours

Study Arms (1)

patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome , Auto Cad software

Patients referred with a confirmed diagnosis of patellofemoral pain syndrome, with a visual analogue scale of more than 3. Anterior or retropatellar knee pain from at least 2 of the following Activities : (1) prolonged sitting; (2) stair climbing; (3) squatting; (4) running; (5) kneeling; and (6) hopping/jumping.

Diagnostic Test: Autocad software

Interventions

Autocad software DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

The participants will be prepared for image-capture data collection by putting four squared markers on leg and thigh.Each subject will extend his/her leg and make two angles from the resting position (90º) to the full extension, photos will be taken. The tested leg passively moved by the researcher through 20° to 60° of knee extension, the participant will be instructed to actively move that leg to the target angle and hold it in this position another photograph will be taken. The angles will be measured using the AutoCAD software. Knee JPS measurements will also be collected using an IKD by same steps

Also known as: Isokinetic system

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 18 Years - 35 Years
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: No
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64)
• Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

thirty-eight patients(males and females) with PFPS will be recruited from the outpatient clinic of the faculties of Physical Therapy, Cairo University, Egypt.

You may qualify if:

• Anterior or retropatellar knee pain from at least 2 of the following Activities : (1) prolonged sitting; (2) stair climbing; (3) squatting; (4) running; (5) kneeling; (6) hopping/jumping; (7) kneel sitting
• Insidious onset of symptoms unrelated to a traumatic incident.
• Age of the subject 18-35 years to limit the possibility that PFPS over age 35 may have been complicated by arthritic changes, and also the subjects should have closed epiphyseal growth plates.
• Patient with chronic PFPS (pain \> 3 months)

You may not qualify if:

• Meniscal or other intraarticular pathologic conditions; cruciate or collateral ligament involvement.
• A history of traumatic patellar subluxation or dislocation.
• Previous surgery in the knee, ankle and hip joints.
• Knee, ankle and hip joints osteoarthritis.
• athletes weren't included.
