Origin to Insertion Kinesio Tapping vs Non-Directional Kinesio Tapping on Quadriceps Peak Torque

Origin to Insertion Kinesio Tapping vs Non-Directional Kinesio Tapping on Quadriceps Peak

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of kinesio tapping on electrical activity and peak torque of quadriceps during concentric and eccentric muscle contraction were carried out in the motion analysis Laboratory.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Quadriceps Muscle Atrophy
• Intervention / Treatment: Other: Cura Kensio-tapping; Other: placebo

Detailed Description

A Pretest posttest control group design was used to. Two hundred normal subjects of both sexes were recruited.

Subjects were randomly assigned into two groups of equal number.

• Cura Kensio-tapping group: consisted of 100 subjects (females and males) will receive kinesio taping from origin to insertion on the superficial muscles of Quadriceps femoris (vastus medialis (VM), vastus lateralis (VL), rectus femoris (RF).
• Placebo-Group: consisted of 100 subjects (females and males) will receive placebo kinesio taping across quadriceps.

• Study Type: Interventional
• Enrollment (Actual): 200
• Phase: Not Applicable

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm	Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Cura kinesio-taping; 100 subjects (females and males) will receive kinesio taping from origin to insertion on the superficial muscles of Quadriceps femoris (VM,VL, RF).	Other: Cura Kensio-tapping; Cura tapes, a cotton strip with an acrylic adhesive. allows for unidirectional elasticity up to 60% beyond its resting length.
Placebo Comparator: Placebo; 100 subjects (females and males) will receive placebo kinesio-taping across quadriceps.	Other: placebo; placebo taping

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Peak Torque Measurement 1	The peak torque of quadriceps muscle of dominant lower limb was measured using Biodex system 830-200 Isokinetic dynamometer.	Before tapping.
