SUMMARY:

INTRODUCTION: Patellofemoral pain (PFP) is a musculoskeletal disorder of the knee joint that causes pain and limitations in physical activities. PFP is associated with biomechanical changes (proximal, local and distal), and there may also be correlations with aspects related to levels of physical activity and sedentary behavior.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze differences in biomechanical and behavioral factors among adult women, in clinical and non-clinical PFP groups.

METHODS: It will be a cross-sectional study. The sample size will be 96 participants (48 for each group). Proximal, local and distal changes will be evaluated through functional assessments: foot pronation test, flexibility tests, dynamic postural control test (OctoBalance), peak muscle contraction. The normality of data distribution will be verified using the Shapiro-Wilk test and asymmetry and kurtosis measures. The generalized linear model (GLzM) will be used to compare isometric muscle strength and flexibility of the analyzed muscles between the clinical and non-clinical groups. EXPECTED RESULTS: With the results obtained through easy-to-apply functional tests, we will try to characterize patellofemoral pain in relation to the cutoff points, the level of physical activity of the groups, as well as kinesiophobia. Through the performance of functional and biomechanical tests, we will confront possible functional differences between women in pain and healthy women.
