“…These factors may be particularly important in some adolescent patients, given the high prevalence of PFP in this population (6.95% of 2200 adolescents (Rathleff, Rathleff, Olesen, Rasmussen, & Roos, 2016)) and commonly reported absence of strength deficits (Rathleff, Baird, et al, 2013), as they can often be fully immersed in sporting activities and influenced by those who care for them. Importantly, education relating to load management has been shown to have a positive effect on symptoms (Esculier et al, 2018;Rathleff, Roos, Olesen, & Rasmussen, 2015) and optimal load management and progression shown to reduce the risk of other injuries in varying sporting populations (Gabbett et al, 2016;Murray, Gabbett, & Townshend, 2016;Windt, Gabbett, Ferris, & Khan, 2017). Therefore, accurate quantification and consideration of its relevance to the patient's symptom development during their assessment and development of a treatment plan, is essential.…”
