The Immediate Effects of Applying Dynamic Tape, Kinesio Tape & Sport Tape

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Injuries to the ankle joint account for 20% of the population that is afﬂicted with joint injury and the largest percentage of self-reported musculoskeletal injuries (> 10%) are to the ankle. Ankle sprain has a large portion in ankle injuries and occurs not only in the sporting population but also in the general community. Although the acute symptom would be resolve quickly, but many people still report persisting problems, such as pain and instability. Chronic ankle instability (CAI) is one of the most common of these residual problems.

Kinesio Tape and White Duck Tape are often applied in patients with CAI, attempt to increase the ankle joint stability, and improve motor performance. However, the previous studies had controversial result to the effects of kinesio tape and white duck tape. The previous studies also showed the insufficient of supporting force and elasticity of kinesio tape and white duct tape. The Dynamic Tape was developed by Kendrick in 2009, which refined the characteristic of elasticity and supporting force.

Therefore the purpose of study is to comparison the effects of static and dynamic balance performance, weight shifting ability and functional movement between kinesio tape, white duck tape and dynamic tape when applied on patients with CAI. With the result may provide an optical method to increase the movement performance of patients with CAI.

The study suspected to recruit 90 volunteers with CAI, and randomly divided to three different groups: Kinesio tape group, White duck tape group and Dynamic tape group. We make postural stability test and limit postural stability test with Biodex Balance System (SD), Y-balance test and single leg hop test to both affected side and sound side foot before applying the tape. After applying the tape according to the divided group, we will repeat the test above again. We will compare the results of the test between groups and within groups.

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
