Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This is a randomized prospective study assessing the impact of psychosocial factors on pain and physical performance among adolescents with anterior knee pain. A set of psychosocial surveys assessing activity-related fear, stress, anxiety and depression will be completed by the participant/parents. Participants will then complete clinical tests of physical performance, numeric pain rating scale, and a self-report questionnaire of functional ability. Participants will then be randomized into one of two psychosocial intervention groups (psychologically informed education group and a control group). After participants receive their assigned education intervention, the clinical tests of pain and self-reported functional ability will be readministered. Participants with anterior knee pain will then complete follow-up surveys of their psychosocial beliefs, pain and self-reported functional ability through REDcap at immediately post-intervention, 2 weeks, 6 weeks, and 3 months.
