The effect of kinesio tape on spasticity, range of motion, balance and functional mobility in children with cerebral palsy and spastic quadriplegies

Protocol summary

Summary
30 children with cerebral palsy of 4 to 10 years were selected randomly and divided into two groups of 15 intervention and control groups. It should be noted that selected children have the ability to walk and mentally capable of receiving and executing orders. The intervention group, in addition to the usual physical therapy and occupational therapies, also received kinesio tape, but the control group received the sham and received the usual services of physiotherapy and occupational therapy according to the past, ie the type without affecting the person was symbolic be pasted.Taping in the ankle and in the anterior tibialis muscle to improve the ankle flexion dorsi, gastrosulosis, in order to control the ankle plantar flexion, rectus femoris, in order to improve knee extension and hamstring to control flexion of the knee. For this purpose, tension is applied to facilitate muscle function from the beginning to the end of the muscle, but in the case of inhibition of the muscle, from the end to the beginning of the muscle, and for muscle tuning up to 30% of the initial length, and in case of functional correction, it will be drawn up to 100% of the initial length. The position of the child during placement of the tape should be such that the muscle is drawn. Taping is done for 14 days and is replaced by a 4 day interval. Before taping,two days after the taping and the next 14 days ( at the end of the intervention), tests and measurements are performed and the results are compared. In this study, the dorsi and knee flexural distance and ankle and knee flexion are measured and recorded, spasticity is assessed by Modified Modified Ashworth Scale, and the degree of each sample is recorded. The functional balance of the child is assessed by the Berg balance test. Forward functional reach measures the individual's balance when standing next to the wall and extending his hand. The child's functional mobility is evaluated by Timed get up and go tests and the results are recorded. The data is entered into the spss and will be analyzed.
