Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease in which the signs vary from one patient to another and over time. Traditionally, physicians have used various parameters to assess the severity of the disease: percentage of body surface area covered, erythema, plaque thickness, degree of scaling and systemic symptoms such as arthritis. However, these clinical assessments alone do not accurately reflect the overall effect of the disease on patients' daily activities. Apart from the clinical severity of affected areas, psoriasis can also have a profound psychosocial impact on the patient's quality of life. This concept is multidimensional, encompassing the physical, social and psychological wellbeing of the person and is based on the patient's view of their condition.
A Síndrome da disfunção Femoropatelar (SDFP) é definida como uma dor anterior ou retro patelar na ausência de outra comorbidade do joelho. É uma patologia com alta incidência, afetando 20% da população em geral. A técnica de Knesio-Taping® (KT), também conhecida como bandagem elástica é um método que se tornou popular nos últimos 10 anos e, desde então tem sido utilizado como proposta terapêutica tanto na prevenção, como atuando diretamente nos sintomas de lesões esportivas e naquelas que acometem o joelho. O estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a influência da técnica Kinesio-Taping® na sintomatologia e funcionalidade de indivíduos com síndrome de Disfunção Femoropatelar (SDFP). A população envolvida neste estudo foi de 32 indivíduos do sexo feminino, diagnosticados clinicamente com a referida síndrome, as quais foram divididas aleatoriamente em dois grupos, o primeiro grupo recebeu o tratamento com Kinesio-Taping® e fisioterapia convencional e o outro grupo recebeu tratamento fisioterapêutico convencional. Ambos os grupos foram submetidos ao HOPTEST, escala de EVA e o questionário Lysholm antes e depois da intervenção, a qual foi realizada por 1 mês. Verificou-se que a Kinesio-Taping® teve uma melhora significativa na EVA ao concluir o ensaio (p=0,012), no entanto, para a funcionalidade e o equilíbrio, na comparação entre os grupos controle e experimental, não foi verificada diferença significativos. Diante do exposto conclui-se que a técnica Kinesio-Taping(KT) associada ao tratamento fisioterapêutico convencional proporciona maior conforto álgico aos pacientes com SDFP.Palavras-chave: Fisioterapia. Síndrome da Dor Patelofemoral. Estabilização. Avaliação.Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS) is defined as anterior or retro patellar pain in the absence of another comorbidity of the knee. It is a pathology with high incidence, affecting 20% of the population in general. The Kinesio-Taping® (KT) technique, also known as elastic bandaging, is a method that has become popular in the last 10 years and since then has been used as a therapeutic approach both in prevention and directly acting on the symptoms of sports injuries and injuries that affect the knee. The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of the Kinesio-Taping® technique on the symptomatology and functionality of individuals with Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS). The subjects involved in this study contained 32 female subjects, clinically diagnosed with this syndrome, who were randomly divided into two groups. The first group received treatment with Kinesio-Taping® and conventional physiotherapy, and the other group received conventional physiotherapeutic treatment. Both groups were submitted to HOPTEST, EVA scale, and the Lysholm questionnaire before and after the intervention, which was performed for 1 month. It was found that Kinesio-Taping ® had a significant improvement in the VAS scale at the conclusion of the test (p = 0.012), however, as for functionality and balance, in comparison between the control and experimental groups, no sig...
