Effectiveness of thoracic kinesio taping on respiratory function and muscle strength in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: A protocol of randomized,double-blind placebo-controlled trial

Background:To our knowledge, only 1 study has investigated the effects of kinesio taping (KT) on pulmonary function and functional capacity of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Therefore, there is still a lack of high-quality evidence to prove the effectiveness of KT for COPD patients. Our purpose was to investigate the effect of KT on respiratory function and muscle strength in the COPD patients who were in stable condition.Methods:This research project has been received ethical approval from the Medical Research and Ethics Committee in Affiliated Nanhua Hospital, University of South China. This work is a part of a comprehensive research project to assess and provide intervention that potentially improves respiratory function and quality of life among patients with COPD. Participants recruited into the study need to fulfill the following criteria: clinical diagnosis of COPD and symptoms indicative of exacerbation; spontaneous breathing on hospital admission; and physiotherapy since the first day of hospitalization. Patients will be assigned at random to the COPD medical treatment + KT (Group 1), or the COPD medical treatment alone (Group 2). The outcome measures are pulmonary function and respiratory muscle strength. The level of statistical significance is set as P < .05.Results:This protocol will provide a reliable theoretical basis for the following research.Conclusions:It was hypothesized that thoracic KT could significantly change pulmonary function and functional capacity in patients with COPD.Trial registration:This study protocol was registered in Research Registry (researchregistry6632).     

Pain-diminishing effects of Kinesio® taping after median sternotomy

Background: Postoperative pain and severe side effects of opioid analgesics present a clinical challenge after cardio-thoracic surgery. In this study, the impact of Kinesio® taping on postoperative morbidity after median sternotomy was observed. Methods: Thirty-nine patients (mean age 66 ± 9 years, CI: 63.28; 68.98) who underwent median sternotomy between 09/2014 and 11/2014 participated in this prospective randomized controlled trial. Patients were assigned into a treatment on a non-treatment group. Patients in the treatment group were taped after leaving the intensive care unit. We assessed, pain, consumption of pain medication, the subjective estimation of patients’ ability to breathe, radiologic and microbial abnormalities as well as adverse effects resulting from the tape use daily until discharge. To determine the patients’ satisfaction a discharge questionnaire was offered after completion of data. Results: Patients who were treated with tape report significantly less pain (2.14 ± 0.5, CI: 1.1; 3.13) than patients from the control group (4.16 ± 0.6, CI: 2.92; 5.41, p = 0.01). The need for opioid pain medication, as assessed by total analgesic consumption per patient, was significantly less in the treatment group (1.2 ml ± 0.4 ml, CI: 0.40 ml; 2.01 ml) versus (3.1 ml ± 0.5 ml, CI: 2.0 ml; 4.2 ml, p = 0.01). The subjective estimation of patients’ ability to breathe was significantly better (p < 0.001) and the satisfaction was higher in the Kinesio® tape group compared to the control group. Taped patients had a mean hospitalization of 10 ± 1 day (CI: 8.74 days; 11.78 days) untapped patients stayed for 11 ± 1 days (CI: 9.17 days; 11.83 days). Adverse effects from the tape treatment were not observed. Conclusions: Kinesio® taping after median sternotomy is a low-risk, non-pharmacologic, cost effective, and promising method for improving patients’ breathing conditions, reducing postoperative pain, pain medication consumption, and thus, potential adverse effects of analgesics.     

The effects of connective tissue manipulation and Kinesio Taping on chronic constipation in children with cerebral palsy: a randomized controlled trial

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of connective tissue manipulation (CTM) and Kinesio Taping^® (KT) on constipation and quality of life in children with cerebral palsy (CP).

Method: This study was designed as a randomized controlled trial. Forty children diagnosed with chronic constipation based on Rome III criteria were randomly assigned to CTM group [6 females, 7 males; 8 y 6?mo (SD = 3y 4?mo)], KT group [7 female, 7 male; 8y 7?mo (SD =3y 5?mo)] or control group [6 female, 7 male; 8y 3?mo (SD = 3y 6?mo)]. All patients were assessed with 7-day bowel diaries, Bristol Stool Form Scale (BSFS), Visual Analog Scale (VAS), and Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PEDsQL). Kruskal-Wallis, Wilcoxon’s signed-rank, and Mann–Whitney U tests were used to determine intra-group and inter-group differences. The level of significance was p?Results: Among the CTM, KT, and control groups, there were statistically significant differences regarding the changes in defecation frequency (2.46, 3.00, 0.30, ES 1.16, p?p?=?0.003), BSFS (1.84, 2.14, 0.07, ES 0.91, p?p?p?Conclusions: This study revealed that CTM and KT seem equally effective physiotherapy approaches for the treatment of pediatric constipation and these approaches may be added to bowel rehabilitation program.

• Implications for rehabilitation

• CTM and KT have similar effectiveness in alleviating the constipation-related symptoms and improving quality of life in children with CP.

• CTM and KT can be integrated into bowel rehabilitation programs.

• Considering the characteristics of patients, these treatment options can be used as an alternative of each other by physiotherapists.

     

Effects of Kinesio Taping on postural balance in patients with low back pain,a randomized controlled trial

Purpose: to identify postural balance changes in subjects with low back pain after the application of Kinesio Taping, which is then compared to a no treatment control group, using baropodometric evaluation. Methods: This randomized controlled trial was carried out on 50 individuals (both sexes) with chronic low back pain. They were then randomized into two groups: an experimental group - EG (treated with Kinesio Taping in the lumbar region) and a control group - CG (no intervention). Both groups underwent a baropodometric evaluation (mean plantar pressure, peak plantar pressure, plantar surface, mass distribution on right foot and left foot, mass distribution on forefoot and rear foot and base width) at four different moments: pre-intervention, 10 minutes, 48 hours, and 10 days after the intervention on the EG. The level of statistical significance was established at 5%. Results: Significant changes were observed in the EG compared to the CG. In the EG, peak pressure reduced on both right and left foot after Kinesio Taping application; the right base width was reduced, and the mass distribution between the forefoot and the rear foot normalized towards the ideal 50% distribution. These changes happened 48 hours after the Kinesio Taping application, with effects lasting up to 10 days. Conclusion: The use of Kinesio Taping in the lumbar region of subjects with chronic low back pain improved postural balance. This is proved by changes in peak plantar pressure, plantar surface, and mass distribution 48 h after Kinesio Taping application, with effects lasting up to 10 days.     

运动机能贴扎改善乳腺癌术后淋巴水肿疗效的系统评价

目的:系统评价运动机能贴扎(KT)改善乳腺癌术后淋巴水肿的有效性及安全性。方法:计算机检索中国生物医学文献数据库(CBM)、中国期刊全文数据库(CNKI)、维普数据库(VIP)、万方数据资源系统、MEDLINE、EMbase、The Cochrane Library、WHO和PEDro数据库,检索时限均从建库至2016年10月。搜索关于运动机能贴扎改善乳腺癌术后淋巴水肿的随机对照试验。结果:共检索到4篇随机对照试验(Randomized Controlled Trials,RCTs)满足纳入标准,共计162名患者纳入研究。分析结果提示:目前没有足够的证据支持运动机能贴扎能够改善乳腺癌术后患者的淋巴水肿;部分研究结果显示运动机能贴扎可能对淋巴水肿上肢的僵硬感、瘙痒感存在积极作用。结论:运动机能贴扎可能有助于改善淋巴水肿相关症状,但对淋巴水肿程度改善作用尚不明确,期待更多大样本、多中心、高质量的RCTs以验证运动机能贴扎对乳腺癌术后淋巴水肿作用。
