Knee function and quality of life in adolescent soccer players with Osgood Shlatter disease history: a preliminary study
Abstract The aim of the study was to assess psycho-physical deficits among young athletes with history of Osgood Shlatter Disease (OSD-H) compared to adolescents without history of knee pain (Control group). Eighteen participants were recruited from a group of 80 young (U14–U17) male soccer players....

description | Abstract The aim of the study was to assess psycho-physical deficits among young athletes with history of Osgood Shlatter Disease (OSD-H) compared to adolescents without history of knee pain (Control group). Eighteen participants were recruited from a group of 80 young (U14–U17) male soccer players. Medical records, and Knee Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) were performed from both groups. The tests were conducted to assess the anthropometric characteristics, knee and ankle range of motion (Ely’s and Weight Bearing Lunge tests), and muscle power of the lower limbs (Leg Press, Single Leg Countermovement Jump, and Single Leg Hop for Distance). Results showed that overall patient-relevant outcomes following OSD (87%) were significantly lower than in the Control group (95%) (p < 0.05). Scores of the KOOS subscales revealed that Quality of Life and Function, Sports and recreational activities were significantly lower in the OSD-H group (p < 0.05). Although, there were no differences in subscale scores for Pain, Symptoms and Daily Activities. There were, also no difference between groups in range of motion angles and muscle power of the lower limbs values. The preliminary results support existing knowledge indicate that OSD may have a long-term influence on function, sports and recreational participation, and quality of life on young athletes. |
