Has Kinesio Tape Effects on Ankle Proprioception? A Randomized Clinical Trial.
Objectives: To establish whether Kinesio tape (Kt) on the ankle improves joint position sense (JPS) immediately after its application and after 48 hours wearing it. Study Design: Randomized clinical trial Setting: Motion analysis laboratory Participants: Sixty-eight volunteers randomly assigned to t...

Study Design: Randomized clinical trial Setting: Motion analysis laboratory Participants: Sixty-eight volunteers randomly assigned to the control (n = 33) or the intervention (n = 35) group, which received ankle Kt. Main outcome measures: JPS was assessed through the Difference of Error (DE) and the Deviation of the Target Angle (DTA). JPS was assessed before the Kt was placed, immediately after and 48 hours later, wearing the tape all this period. T-test two-sided and Mann-Whitney U test were used to compare DE between groups and Chi-square test was performed to assess DTA. Results: Forty-eight hours after application of the Kt, 10° plantarflexion worsened in the intervention group and improved in the control (p = 0.041). For other positions there were no significant differences. Neutral was the most accurately reproduced position. Conclusion: Kt had no significant effect on ankle JPS in healthy individuals. Kt is not justified as a prevention technique or when improving proprioception is the rehabilitation aim. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: pictorial research tables/charts randomized controlled trial Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
