Brief Summary:
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy of adding flossing band therapy to conventional physiotherapy in patients diagnosed with Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome PFPS The main questions it aims to answer are
Does combining flossing band therapy with conventional physiotherapy lead to greater improvements in pain strength and function compared to conventional physiotherapy alone
What are the effects of flossing band therapy on knee functionality and muscle strength in PFPS patients Participants will be randomly assigned to either the Standard Physiotherapy group or the Flossing Band and Physiotherapy group In addition to conventional physiotherapy participants in the Flossing Band group will undergo sessions where a flossing band is applied around the knee joint to provide moderate compression Researchers will compare the two groups to determine if the addition of flossing band therapy enhances treatment outcomes for PFPS

Detailed Description:
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy of integrating flossing band therapy into conventional physiotherapy for individuals diagnosed with Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome PFPS A double-blinded randomized controlled trial was conducted to evaluate the influence of adding flossing band application to conventional physiotherapy based on 8 weeks of resistance training in patients with PFPS The study was approved by the research ethics committee of the University of Jaén and conducted in accordance with the Code of Ethics of the World Medical Association for human studies Declaration of Helsinki A sample of 50 participants diagnosed with PFPS were randomly allocated into two distinct groups the Standard Physiotherapy Group SPG and the Flossing Band and Physiotherapy Group FBPG Eligibility criteria included a clinical diagnosis of PFPS retro patellar pain for at least three months and no recent medical treatment or lower extremity surgery within the last six months Participants underwent assessments at baseline and after 8 weeks of rehabilitation protocols including standardized measures of pain intensity knee functionality and overall mobility The intervention protocols involved either conventional physiotherapy focused on neuromuscular training or a combined treatment regimen of conventional physiotherapy along with additional flossing band therapy targeting the knee region Researchers applied rigorous blinding protocols to ensure impartial evaluations and minimize bias Outcome measures included the Kujala Anterior Knee Pain Scale AKPS handheld dynamometry for knee extensor muscle strength a visual analog scale VAS for pain assessment and the Lower Extremity Functional Scale LEFS for self-reported function isokinetic variables including peak torque total work and average power were assessed using the Biodex System 4 dynamometer and emotional and psychological variables The study aimed to determine if the addition of flossing band therapy enhances treatment outcomes for PFPS compared to conventional physiotherapy alone
