The purpose of this commentary was to critically appraise the patellofemoral pain clinical practice guideline published by the Academy of Orthopaedic Physical Therapy in 2019 and to summarize their recommendations for chiropractic practice.
Quality and reporting of this guideline was assessed with the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation II (AGREE II) instrument. Three reviewers independently scored between 1-7 (strongly disagree-strongly agree) for 23 items organized into six quality domains.
AGREE II quality domain scores ranged between 57%-98%, with overall quality of the recommendation rated 89%. The guideline contained evidence summaries and/or recommendations for three topics: impairment/function-based diagnosis; examination; and interventions.
Based on its methodological quality, we recommend the use of this guideline for the examination, diagnosis, and management of patellofemoral pain in chiropractic practice. A summary of recommendations from this guideline is presented for use within the scope of chiropractic practice in Canada.
本评论的目的是批判性地评估骨科物理治疗学会于2019年发布的髌股关节疼痛临床实践指南,并总结其对整脊疗法实践的建议。
使用《研究与评价指南评估II》(AGREE II)工具评估该指南的质量和报告情况。三位评审员对分为六个质量领域的23个项目独立进行1至7分(强烈不同意至强烈同意)评分。
AGREE II质量领域得分在57%至98%之间,建议的总体质量评分为89%。该指南包含了关于三个主题的证据总结和/或建议:基于损伤/功能的诊断;检查;以及干预措施。
基于其方法学质量,我们建议在整脊疗法实践中使用本指南来检查、诊断和管理髌股关节疼痛。本指南的建议总结供在加拿大整脊疗法实践范围内使用。
