Validity and Reliability of Autocad Software Assessment of Joint Position Sense in Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Autocad software for Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome. Completed, enrolled 38 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The overall aim of the study is to assess the reliability and validity of Autocad software to measure JPS in PFPS, especially: 1. To assess the intra-tester and between day reliability of measurement of JPS using Autocad software. 2. To assess the validity of these measurements against those found during an IKD.

Timeline
Interventions
The participants will be prepared for image-capture data collection by putting four squared markers on leg and thigh.Each subject will extend his/her leg and make two angles from the resting position (90º) to the full extension, photos will be taken. The tested leg passively moved by the researcher through 20° to 60° of knee extension, the participant will be instructed to actively move that leg to the target angle and hold it in this position another photograph will be taken. The angles will be measured using the AutoCAD software. Knee JPS measurements will also be collected using an IKD by same steps
