Participants Needed for Knee Pain Study
Gretchen Salsich, Ph.D., PT, at Saint Louis University's Department of Physical Therapy, is recruiting persons with patellofemoral pain (pain around the kneecap) to determine the relationship between movement and pain.
Participants may be eligible if they:
- Are 30 to 50 years old
- Have had pain around or behind the kneecap for at least two months
- Have a BMI less than 30
- Have had no previous traumatic knee injury or surgery
The study will include one phone interview (10 minutes) and one visit to the study site for additional screening and movement analysis (up to three hours). Eligible participants, if chosen, may receive up to $50 compensation for time.
