Brief Summary:
Patellofemoral pain syndrome PFPS is a common and challenging knee condition characterized by pain around the patella It primarily affects active women athletes and military personnel PFPS accounts for a significant portion of musculoskeletal and knee complaints though its true prevalence may be higher due to underdiagnosis Diagnosis is based on a detailed history and physical exam with symptoms like pain during activities such as kneeling stair climbing squatting and running The condition is caused by muscle imbalance overactivity overload and trauma leading to mechanical and dynamic control issues in the lower extremities
Most PFPS treatments are conservative focusing on physiotherapy approaches that include patient education strengthening flexibility proprioception and stretching exercises Surgical interventions are rare
Current literature lacks studies on the use of web-based remote exercise programs for PFPS patients Therefore this study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a web-based timed exercise program on pain functional capacity and kinesiophobia in individuals with PFPS

Detailed Description:
Patellofemoral pain syndrome PFPS is one of the most common and challenging knee disorders to treat It refers to pain around the patella and surrounding structures PFPS was first described in 1928 and is most frequently observed in active women athletes and military personnel It accounts for a significant portion of musculoskeletal complaints and knee problems and the actual prevalence may be higher as not all cases are diagnosed The diagnosis of patellofemoral syndrome largely relies on a detailed and accurate history and physical examination Symptoms can be unilateral or bilateral and often include pain associated with activities such as kneeling stair climbing squatting and running PFPS is characterized by an imbalance among the static and dynamic structures of the lower extremity muscle imbalance overactivity overload and trauma Patients with PFPS exhibit abnormalities in mechanical and dynamic control of the lower extremity
Most treatment approaches for PFPS are conservative with surgical interventions being rare Treatment programs typically involve a multimodal physiotherapy approach including functional patient education lower extremity strengthening flexibility proprioception endurance and stretching exercises
Upon reviewing the existing literature no studies were found that investigated the use of a web-based remote exercise program among patients with PFPS
Therefore the aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of a web-based remote timed exercise program on pain functional capacity and kinesiophobia in individuals with patellofemoral pain syndrome The evaluation will include the Visual Analog Scale VAS for pain assessment the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia the Kujala questionnaire for patellofemoral function and the Timed Up and Go TUG test for functional mobility
