本研究的目的是分析肌内效贴贴（KT）对健康受试者股四头肌神经肌肉性能、姿势平衡和下肢功能的直接影响。这是一项随机、盲、对照的临床试验，其中60名女性志愿者（年龄：23.3 +/- 2.5岁；BMI: 22.2 +/- 2.1 kg/m(2)）被随机分为三组，每组20名受试者：对照组（休息10分钟）；非弹性胶带（应用于股直肌、股外侧肌和股内侧肌）；和KT（在同一肌肉上应用KT）。在干预前后，对所有个体进行单跳和三跳、体位平衡（通过气压计）、峰值同心和偏心扭矩以及股外侧肌电活动的评估。在各组之间以及三组中任何一组的初始和最终评估中，VL肌电图活动或同心和偏心膝关节峰值扭矩均无显著差异。我们还观察到三组之间单跳和三跳距离和单足静态平衡没有显著变化。健康女性RF、VL和VM肌应用KT对下肢功能、体位平衡、膝关节伸肌峰值扭矩和VL肌电活动无显著影响。(C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd.版权所有。
The aim of this study was to analyze the immediate effects of applying Kinesio Taping (R) (KT) on the neuromuscular performance of femoral quadriceps, postural balance and lower limb function in healthy subjects. This is a randomized, blind, controlled, clinical trial, where sixty female volunteers (age: 23.3 +/- 2.5 years; BMI: 22.2 +/- 2.1 kg/m(2)) were randomly assigned to three groups of 20 subjects each: control (10 min at rest); nonelastic adhesive tape (application over the rectus femoris, vastus lateralis and vastus medialis muscles); and KT (KT application over the same muscles). All individuals were assessed for single and triple hops, postural balance (by baropodometry), peak concentric and eccentric torque and electromyographic activity of vastus lateralis, before and after interventions. No significant differences in electromyographic activity of the VL or concentric and eccentric knee peak torque were recorded, between groups and initial and final assessment in any of the three groups. We also observed no significant alteration in single and triple-hop distance and one-footed static balance between the three groups. Application of KT to RF, VL and VM muscles did not significantly change lower limb function, postural balance, knee extensor peak torque or electromyographic activity of VL muscle in healthy women.
