Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
This study evaluates two different therapeutic exercise regimens in patients with PFPS and their effect on pain at rest and function.
Supervised exercise therapy will be applied in both groups three times a week over a 3-month period with individually tailored and graded exercise programs, differing between groups in terms of number of exercises, number of repetitions and sets, and time spent on performing aerobic exercises.
