Q

Knee Ligament Sprain CPG Revision 2017: A level evidence (3)

A
  • weight bearing/NWB concentric or eccentric exercises should be implemented within 4 to 6 weeks, 2-3x/wk for 6 to 10 months, to increase thigh muscle strength and functional performance after ACL reconstruction
  • NMES should be used for 6-8 weeks after ACL reconstruction to increase quadriceps muscle strength
  • neuromuscular re-ed should be incorporated with muscle strengthening in patients with knee stability and movement coordination impairments

Q

Patellofemoral Pain CPG 2019: A level evidence (10)

A
  • clinicians should use reproduction of retro or peri patellar pain during squatting as a diagnostic test.
  • performance of other functional activities that load the patellofemoral joint in a flexed position such as stair climbing or descent as diagnostic tests
  • clinicians should use the anterior knee pain scale (AKPS), the patellofemoral pain and osteoarthritis subscale of the KOOS or the VAS for activity
  • clinicians should use the Eng and Pierrynowski Questionnaire (EPQ) to measure pain and function
  • use VAS for worst and usual pain or NPRS to measure pain
  • include exercise therapy with combined hip and knee targeted exercises. Target posterolateral hip musculature. Knee-targeted exercise should include weight bearing (resisted squats) or NWB (resisted knee extension) exercise. The combination of hip and knee is preferred.
  • clinicians should prescribe prefabricated foot orthoses for patients with greater than normal pronation to reduce pain, but only up to 6 weeks. If prescribed combined with an exercise program. There is no evidence to recommend custom over prefabricated
  • do not use dry needling to treat PFP
  • do not use manual therapy in isolation
  • combine other interventions such as foot orthoses, patellar taping, patellar mobilizations and lower limb stretching with exercise therapy as the critical component

Q

Patellofemoral Pain CPG 2019: B level evidence (7)

A
  • diagnosis PFP from the following criteria: presence of retro or peri patellar pain, reproduction with squatting, stair climbing, prolonged sitting or other functional activities loading the PFJ in a flexed position, exclusion of all other conditions that may cause anterior knee pain
  • clinicians should administer appropriate clinical or field tests that reproduce pain and assess lower-limb movement coordination such as squatting, step-downs, and single leg squats
  • patellar taping in combination with exercise therapy to assist in immediate pain reduction and to enhance outcomes of exercise therapy in the short term (4wks). Taping applied with the aim of enhancing muscle function is not recommended
  • do not prescribe patellofemoral knee orthoses
  • do not use electromyography-based biofeedback on medial vastii activity to augment quadriceps exercise therapy for treatment
  • do not use visual biofeedback on lower extremity alignment during exercise therapy
  • do not use biophysical agents including ultrasound, cryotherapy, phonophoresis, ionto, e-stim and therapeutic laser
17
Q

Patellofemoral Pain CPG 2019: C level evidence (4)

A
  • clinicians may use the patellar tilt test with the presence of hypomobility to support the dx of PFP
  • gait retraining consisting of multiple sessions of cuing to adopt a forefoot strike pattern (for rear foot strike runners), cuing to increase running cadence or cuing to reduce peak hip adduction while running for runners with PFP
  • clinicians may use acupuncture to reduce pain however caution should be exercised because the superiority over placebo or sham is unknown
  • measure of patellar provocation, patellar mobility, foot position, hip and thigh muscle strength and muscle length
18
Q

Patellofemoral Pain CPG 2019: F level evidence (3)

A
  • BFR plus high repetition knee exercise therapy for those with limiting painful resisted knee extension
  • PFP Impairment/Function-Based Classification Subcategories:

Overuse/overload
Muscle performance deficits
Movement coordination deficits
Mobility impairments: foot hyper mobility and or flexibility deficits of 1 or more of the following… HS, quad, gastroc, soleus, lateral retinaculum, ITB

  • patient education
19
Q

Knee Ligament Sprain CPG Revision 2017: D level evidence

20
Q

Ankle Stability and Movement Coordination Impairments 2021 Revision CPG: Intervention

A

A Level Evidence:

  • primary prevention: recommend the use of prophylactic bracing to reduce risk of a first time LAS, particularly those with risk factors
  • secondary prevention of recurrent LAS after initial: prophylactic bracing and proprioceptive and balance focused therapeutic exercise training programs
  • acute/postacute LAS protection and optimal loading: use external supports and progressively bear weight on the affected limb
  • severe injuries: immobilization ranging from semi rigid bracing to below knee casting may be indicated for up to 10 days
  • acute/post acute LAS
