Thus, the objective of this study was to analyze the relationship between FPD with functionality, pain and QOL of healthy women and with FPD. Methodology: SF-36 and AKPS questionnaires were applied to 82 volunteers, 41 asymptomatic and 41 with FPD, where the scores between groups were compared. Results: The difference between the scores of the two groups was close to the reference values for the development of FPD. Conclusion: The results of the present study show that there were no differences between asymptomatic and FPD women when QoL and functionality were evaluated. However, further studies are needed to better elucidate the influences caused by FPD on the functionality and QOL of women with FPD and asymptomatic women.Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Qualidade de vida, Dor patelofemoral, SF-36bachelorThesis
