The main questions it aims to answer are:\n\n1. Can a CPG-adherent care approach to PFP management improve short- and long-term knee function, pain, and confidence with completing duty-related activities?\n2. Can a CPG-adherent care approach to PFP management reduce utilization of healthcare resources and analgesic medication prescription at 12-month follow-up?\n3. Are there patient- and care-specific factors that predict or mediate clinical benefit from physical therapy care for PFP?\n\nResearchers will compare the CPG-adherent physical therapy intervention to usual physical therapy care in the Military Health System.\n\nParticipants will: 1) be randomized to receive CPG-adherent care or usual care for PFP management; 2) attend physical therapy corresponding to their group assignment; and 3) complete patient-reported outcome measures at baseline and 6-weeks and 3-, 6-, and 12-months post-randomization.",[102],"Patellofemoral Pain",[104,105,106,107,108],"Physical Therapy","Military","Service members","Rehabilitation","Clinical Practice Guidelines","2026-04-30",{"date":111,"type":112},"2026-05-06","ACTUAL",{"date":114,"type":112},"2025-08-22",{"date":116,"type":96},"2028-09-29",{"name":67,"class":6},1]
