- Abstract
* OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of education interventions compared with any type of comparator on managing patellofemoral pain (PFP). * DESIGN: Intervention systematic review. PROSPERO identifier: CRD42018088671. * LITERATURE SEARCH: MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, and Web of Science were searched for studies evaluating the effect of education on clin ical and functional outcomes in people with PFP. * STUDY SELECTION CRITERIA: Two reviewers independently assessed studies fo r inclusion and quality. We included randomized controlled tria ls on PFP where at least 1 group received an educatio n intervention (in isolation or in combination with other interventions). * DATA SYNTHESIS: Available data were synthesized via meta-analysis where possible; data that were not appropriate for pooling were synthesized qualitatively. Interpretation was guided by the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation approach. * RESULTS: Nine tria ls were identified. Low-credibility evidence indicated that health education material alone was inferior to exercise therapy for pain and function outcomes. Low- and very low-credibility evidence indicated that health professional-delivered education alone produced outcomes similar to those of exercise therapy combined with healtn professional-delivered education for pain and function, respectively. * CONCLUSION: Health professional-delivered education may produce similar outcomes in pain and function compared to exercise therapy plus health professional-delivered education in people with PFP.
