Background: Previous studies have established the prevalence of Patellofemoral pain in the United Kingdom,
Australia, United States, China, and Thailand. Other studies have reported that the chronic pain of PFP affects
physical, functional, and psychological statuses of patients, which has not been investigated in Thai thus far.
Results in this field may be useful for preventing, controlling, and planning treatment for the chronic pain of
PFP. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of chronic PFP in Thai university athletes and
the correlation of pain intensity and psychological and physical fitness of leg muscle outcome measurements.
Method: The participants, aged 19 to 25 years, had retropatellar pain for more than 3 months without traumatic
onset or swelling and no history of surgery or dislocation of the patella. University athletes completed the Thai
language version of the survey instrument for natural history, aetiology, and prevalence of patellofemoral pain
studies, and those who scored 6 or more were considered to have PFP. In addition, the diagnosis was confirmed
by clinical tests, including tests for vastus medialis coordination, patellar apprehension, eccentric step, and single
leg squat, if at least two of the tests returned a positive result. After the diagnosis, data were then collected using
Visual Analog Scales, the Philadelphia Mindfulness Scale, Pain Catastrophizing Scale, and the Fear Avoidance
Beliefs Questionnaire. The final tests, to assess the physical fitness of leg muscles, included a leg dynamometer
and vertical jump test. Results: The prevalence of chronic PFP in the overall sample was 6.14%. The proportion
of chronic PFP with respect to knee pain was 43.29% in the overall sample and was 48.2% and 36.58% among
the male and female participants, respectively. Leg strength and power of the male participants was significantly
higher than those of the female participants. Interestingly, the psychological features were significantly
correlated with the Visual Analog Scale, and leg power was correlated with leg strength for both genders.
Conclusion: The prevalence of chronic PFP in Thai university athletes was low; however, chronic PFP had an
impact on psychological features and physical fitness of leg muscles. A correlation between pain intensity and
psychological features was found with high pain intensity, leading to lower mindfulness, higher pain
catastrophizing, and fear avoidance beliefs. Therefore, both psychological and physical treatments should be
considered for patients with chronic PFP. |
