Can patellar tape reduce the patellar malalignment and pain associated with patellofemoral osteoarthritis

Crossley KM et al. – Patellar taping is a conservative treatment that may reduce patellar malalignment and pain in people with patellofemoral joint osteoarthritis (OA). This study aimed to compare patellar alignment in people with and without patellofemoral joint OA and to evaluate immediate effects of patellar taping on patellar alignment and pain in people with patellofemoral joint OA. Patellar tape may reduce malalignment and pain associated with patellofemoral joint OA.
