Patellar Tendinopathy

In this class, I’ll talk about the clinical reasoning involved in PT, which includes a part related to complex system approach; followed by risk profile determination and grade of recommendation regarding prevention and rehabilitation. Read more ↓

2 Episodes 30m

Learning Points

Analyze interactions between factors to identify your athlete's PROFILE (for PT risk)
Apply the assessment’s results on your prevention program (targeting PT)!
Implement interventions to increase the capability of the athlete (and tendon) to deal with load.
Future steps: Explore different levels/areas (including load)
Consider the evidence and your clinical reasoning on decision-making regarding PT
Consider the kinetic chain and optimize the capacity of the tendon and the MSK system
Update and analyze critically the information that you might receive!

Episodes

Tendon Pathology, the Kinetic Chain and a Complex Systems Approach

How tendon tissue responds to load along the continuum model, why capacity and demand are read across the whole kinetic chain, and how a complex systems view replaces lists of risk factors with risk profiles.

Patellar Tendinopathy Risk Profiles and the Evidence for Treatment

Risk and protective profiles for patellar tendinopathy in jumping athletes, how a tailored prevention program lowered its incidence, and what the evidence and a survey of Brazilian sports physiotherapists say about treatment.
