Abstract

Objective: The study aim to establish the effect of single-session Kinesio Taping (KT) application upon the function, pain, and dynamic balance in older women with knee osteoarthritis (OA).
Materials and Methods: Thirty-women with unilateral knee (OA) were included. A single-session KT intervention was applied to the quadriceps-femoris and hamstrings muscles. All assessments were performed three times, before Kinesio taping, 30 minutes and 48 hours after taping. Functional level and pain were evaluated with the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), and the dynamic balance was evaluated with the libra-computerized balance device.
Results: Symptoms (p=0.001), pain (p=0.001), function-daily life (p=0.001), quality of life (p=0.01) subscale scores of KOOS and bipedal (p=0.005) and affected side (p=0.002) dynamic balance results showed statistically significant improvements among the three time points.
Conclusion: A single session Kinesio taping application provided a statistically significant improvement and a short-term positive effect, which did not cause clinically significant changes in the function, pain and dynamic balances of elderly women with unilateral knee osteoarthritis.

Diz Osteoartritli Yaşlı Kadınlarda Kinezyo Bantlama Öncesi ve Sonrası Fonksiyon, Ağrı ve Dinamik Denge: Bir Pilot Çalışma

Abstract

Giriş ve Amaç: Diz osteoartritli yaşlı kadınlarda tek seans Kinezyo bantlama uygulamasının fonksiyon, ağrı ve dinamik denge üzerine etkisini belirlemekti.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışmaya unilateral diz osteoartritli 30 kadın dahil edildi. Kuadrisepsfemoris ve hamstring kaslarına tek seans Kinezyo bantlama uygulandı. Tüm değerlendirmeler,Kinezyo bantlama öncesi ve bantlama uygulamasından 30 dakika ve 48 saat sonra olmak üzere üç kez yapıldı. Fonksiyonel seviye ve ağrı Diz İncinme ve Osteoartrit Sonuç Skoru ile, dinamik denge libra-bilgisayarlı denge cihazı ile değerlendirildi.
Bulgular: Diz İncinme ve Osteoartrit Sonuç Skoru'nun semptom (p=0.001), ağrı (p=0.001), fonksiyon-günlük yaşam (p=0.001), yaşam kalitesi (p=0.01) alt ölçek puanları ile bipedal (p=0.005) ve etkilenen taraftaki (p=0.002) dinamik denge sonuçları üç zaman noktası arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark bulundu.
Sonuç: Tek seanslık bir Kinezyo bantlama uygulaması unilateral diz osteoartritli yaşlı kadınların fonksiyon, ağrı ve dinamik dengelerinde klinik olarak major değişiklik oluşturmayan ancak istatistiksel olarak anlamlı iyileşme ve kısa süreli pozitif etki sağladı.
