Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this prospective, randomized, controlled study was to determine the effects of kinesio taping in the treatment of patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). Methods: Thirty-one women with PFPS (mean age: 44.88 years; range: 17 to 50 years) were randomly assigned to either a kinesio taping (KT) (n=15) or control (n=16) group. Both groups received the same muscle strengthening and soft tissue stretching exercises for six weeks and the KT group additionally received kinesio taping at four day intervals for six weeks. Visual analog scale was used to measure pain intensity. Tension of the iliotibial band/tensor fascia lata and hamstring muscles and the mediolateral location of the patella were measured before the treatment and at the end of the third and sixth week. The Anterior Knee Pain Scale / Kujala Scale was used for the analysis of functional performance. Results: Comparing pretreatment and 6th week values, significant improvements were found in pain, soft tissue flexibility and functional performance of both groups (p0.05). The KT group had significantly better hamstring flexibility than the control group at the end of three weeks (p

Özet

Amaç: Prospektif, randomize, kontrollü bu çalışmanın amacı patellofemoral ağrı sendromlu (PFAS) hastalarda kinezyoteyp uygulamasının, egzersize katkı sağlayıp sağlamayacağını araştırmaktı. Çalışma planı: Çalışmaya 17 ila 50 yaşları arasında (ortalama yaş: 44.88) otuz bir PFAS’li kadın hasta katıldı. Hastalar randomize olarak kinezyoteyp (KT) (n=15) ve kontrol gruplarına (n=16) ayrıldı. Her iki gruba da altı hafta süresince aynı kuvvetlendirme ve yumuşak doku germe egzersizleri verildi. Çalışma grubuna egzersize ek olarak altı hafta boyunca dört günlük uygulamalarla kinezyoteyp tedavisi de yapıldı. Ağrı şiddeti görsel analog skala ile değerlendirildi. Iliotibial bant/tensor fasya lata (ITB/TFL) ve hamstring gerginliği, patellanın mediolateral konumu, tedaviden önce, üçüncü ve altıncı haftaların sonunda değerlendirildi. Olguların performans analizinde Kujala testi kullanıldı. Bulgular: Tedavi öncesi değerler altı hafta sonrakilerle karşılaştırıldığında, her iki grupta da ağrı, yumuşak doku esnekliği ve fonksiyon açısından anlamlı fark olduğu saptandı (p0.05). Kinezyoteyp grubunda hamstring esnekliğinin kontrol grubuna göre üç haftanın sonunda daha iyi olduğu görüldü (p
