Patellofemoral pain (PFP) is one of the most common causes of chronic knee pain among physically active individuals. Due to its multifactorial etiology, this condition can be difficult to effectively manage. Many individuals with PFP report recurrent or chronic symptoms even after receiving an intervention. Unsuccessful management of PFP may be due to a lack of understanding of the various factors contributing to the development of PFP and how to effectively intervene. This presentation will aid clinicians to more successfully manage patients with PFP by: 1) helping clinicians to understand factors that play a role in the development of PFP and, 2) providing evidence for interventions that lead to positive patient outcomes.

1. Defining PFP

To effectively manage PFP, clinicians must first understand the diagnostic criteria for this condition, along with the parthomechanics that can lead to the development of PFP.

2. Classification Scheme for PFP

Factors such as decreased strength, faulty lower extremity biomechanics, and hypermobility at the foot may play a role in altered mechanics at the patellofemoral joint. Performing a detailed and thorough evaluation will allow for the clinician to determine which factors may play a role in exacerbating a patient’s symptoms.

3. Effective Intervention Strategies for PFP

Clinicians should develop an individualized intervention plan for each patient with PFP. Important components that should be considered in an intervention plan include: gluteal and quadriceps strengthening exercises, movement retraining, and patient education.
