■草皮脚趾是一种常见的运动损伤,可能会影响活动能力和功能能力。为了完全恢复,需要康复方式来克服这些问题。这项研究调查了KT是否会减轻疼痛,改善步态表现,增强接受物理治疗的草皮脚趾患者的功能能力。
■将60名II级脚趾(年龄25-30岁)患者随机分为三个治疗组;KT与每周进行3次连续12周的锻炼计划一起应用。(KT组;n=20),安慰剂录音加运动(安慰剂组;n=20),或仅运动(对照组;n=20)。疼痛,步态参数,和使用VAS评估的功能能力,三维步态分析,和6MWT分别处理前和后处理。
■KT组治疗后VAS评分显著降低,低于对照组或安慰剂组,KT组6MWT距离显著增加,高于对照组或安慰剂组(p<0.001)。此外,治疗后步长显著增加,步幅长度,KT组的节奏和速度高于对照组和安慰剂组(p<0.05)。治疗后对照组和安慰剂组之间的步态参数没有显着差异(p>0.05)。
■研究结果表明,KT是草皮脚趾患者运动的一种有用的补充方式,因为它可能会导致更有利的改善疼痛,步态特征,和功能能力。应该进行进一步的研究以评估长期影响,不同的KT应用方法,和定制的草坪脚趾治疗方案。
UNASSIGNED: Turf toe is a common sports injury that may affect mobility and functional ability. For complete recovery, rehabilitation modalities are required to overcome these issues. This study investigated whether kinesio taping (KT) would reduce pain, improve gait performance, and enhance the functional capacity of turf toe patients undergoing physical therapy.
UNASSIGNED: sixty patients with grade II turf toe (age; 25-30 years) assigned randomly into three treatment groups; KT applied alongside an exercise program conducted three times/week for 12 successive weeks. (KT group; n = 20), placebo taping plus exercise (Placebo group; n = 20), or exercise only (Control group; n = 20). Pain, gait parameters, and functional ability assessed using VAS, 3D gait analysis, and 6MWT respectively pre- and post-treatment.
UNASSIGNED: There was a significant post-treatment decrease in VAS score in the KT group lower than the control or placebo group and a significant increase in 6MWT distance in the KT group higher than the control or placebo group (p < 0.001). Additionally, there was a significant post-treatment increase in step length, stride length, cadence and velocity of KT group higher than control and placebo group (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference in gait parameters between control and placebo groups post treatment (p > 0.05).
UNASSIGNED: The findings of the study demonstrated that KT is a useful complementary modality to exercise in patients with turf toe, as it may result in more favorable improvements to pain, gait characteristics, and functional abilities. Further studies should be conducted to assess the long-term effects, different KT application methods, and tailored treatment protocols on turf toe.
