The relationship between hip kinematics and iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS) in long distance runners: a critically appraised topic
Clinical Question:
Is there evidence to suggest that runners with a history of ITBS demonstrate altered lower extremity kinematics compared with runners without a history of ITBS?
Clinical Bottom Line:
There is moderate evidence suggesting that hip kinematics differ between runners with a history of ITBS compared with healthy runners. Results are contradictory related to the plane of movement and direction of the kinematic change. In addition, assessing hip kinematics following an exhaustive run may be beneficial to detect change.
