Clinical Trial Summary

To determine the effects of functional kinesio taping on subacromial space in athletes with rotator cuff tendinopathy.


Clinical Trial Description

Subacromial impingement is a condition among athletes those involved in overhead sports activities such as swimming and volleyball. According to Neer there are two main categories of shoulder impingement, these are structural and functional. Structural: caused by reduction of the subacromial space (SAS) due to bony growth, calcification or soft tissue inflammation whereas functional is caused by or superior migration of the humeral head due to muscular weakness imbalance. In some cases subacromial impingement can be result from a combination of both structural and functional factors.Maintenance of the SAS during arm elevation is thus essential for the prevention of Rotator cuff tendinopathy. The aim of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to evaluate the long-term effects of scapular KT, added to a 6-week rehabilitation program, on the subacromial space at different arm positions in athletes with Rotator cuff tendinopathy. To better understand the underlying mechanisms of KT, our secondary objective addressed the effects of KT on reliving pain-free and full ROM of shoulder joint. ;
