Official Title: McConnell Patellar Taping in Static and Dynamic Postural Control of Women With Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome: Randomized Clinical Trial and Blind
Brief Summary:
Introduction: Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is related to the previous sore knee, change functionality and postural control deficits. One of the possibilities for pain control and better positioning of the patella is the rigid bandage patellar widely used by clinicians and researchers.
Objective: To evaluate the effect of rigid patellar bandage on postural control, pain and function in sedentary women with PFPS.
Methods: The sample will be composed of 30 volunteers, sedentary, between 18 and 55 years; randomized group Bandage Functional Rigid (n = 15) and Banding Placebo (n = 15). All fill the Personal Data Sheet, Visual analog scale Pain Questionnaire Previous Knee Pain Scale; and will be submitted to analysis of postural control (static and dynamic) and carry out the test and sit up in pre conditions and post application of the bandage.
Hypothesis: Expected to observe the effect of rigid patellar bandage in pain, function and postural control in sedentary women with PFPS.
