Acute Effects of kinesiotaping on pain, balance, and gait performance in patients with knee osteoarthiritis

  • KINESIO TAPING (KT) is commonly used for patients with knee OSTEOARTHRITIs
  • Goals of KT include:
  • Pain relief and inflammation reduction
  • Mechanical support
  • improvement in functional outcomes

Introduction

  • This PowerPoint will examine the effects of Kinesio taping on:
  • Knee Osteoarthiritis
  • Pain Management
  • Balance
  • Functional Mobility
  • Gait Performance

Powerpointoverview

  • Total of 164 patients with knee osteoarthritis
  • Age Range: 60 and up

particiPant details

  • Inclusion: Patients with symptomatic grade 1-3 knee OSTEOARTHRITIS
  • Exclusion: Rheumatoid diseases, previous knee surgery, or inflammation in the knee joint

Inclusion and exclusion criteria

  • Groups: Kinesiotaping (KT) vs Placebotaping
  • Blinded Outcome assessment with Two physiatrists
  • KT and PT applied similarity but KT with tension

Study Method

  • Two I Bands and Two Y bands used for STABILIZATION and Mechanical Correction
  • Tension applied: 10-25 % FOR MECHANICAL correction
  • THE Same was applied for placebotaping just without any tension

KINESIOTAPING Technique

  • Tests Used:
  • 10-meter walking test
  • time up and go test
  • single leg stance test
  • functional reach test

Assessment Methods

  • Pain and Gait performance improved more in KT group compared to PT
  • Both KT and PT Group showed reduction in pain

results

  • KINESIO TAPING provides immediate effecTs in reducing pain and improving gait performance in knee OSTEOARTHRITIS

Conclusion

  • Randomized controlled trial design
  • immediate outcome measurement
  • Blinded outcome measurement

Positives of the study

  • No focus on daily life activities
  • No long-term follow up
  • limited participant diversity
