Efficacy Of 3 Therapeutic Taping Configurations For Children With Brachial Plexus Birth Palsy

Conclusions: Rhomboid taping cannot be recommended for treatment of children with BPBP. Both trapezius and combined taping approaches reduced scapular winging, but HT CBA was limited with combined taping. Therefore, therapeutic taping of middle and lower trapezius was the most effective configuration for scapular stabilization in children with BPBP. Resting posture improved, but performance of the positions was not significantly improved.

The Effects Of Kinesio Tape On The Treatment Of Lateral Epicondylitis

Conclusion: The application of KT produces an improvement in pain intensity and upper extremity disability in subjects with LE and MTP in forearm muscles, and KT with tension was more effective than placebo group. Suggestion and limitation It is proposed that in future work, pain-free grip measurements might have been a more effective measure than an average of 3 grip measures.
