The comparison of the immediate effect of athletic taping and kinesiotaping techniques on functional performance tests of female athletes with chronic ankle instability
To investigate the immediate effects of different types of tape (Kinesiotaping®, athletic taping) on functional performance in athletes with chronic ankle instability.
Design
A clinical trial with a control group, with crossover groups of 16 patients, not blinded, randomized with taking concealed envelop from inside of a bag.
Settings and conduct
Each participant receives all interventions with a different sequence in 5 sessions with intervals and acts as her control group. (For example, participant1; in session1: kinesiotaping, 3 days later in session 2: athletic tape, 3 days later in session 3: Kinesio-placebo taping and 3 days later in session 4: Placebo athletic taping and 3 days later in session5: without tape). The order of the sequence of interventions and the performance tests are determined for each participant separately and randomly (taking a sealed envelope from within the bag).
The first selection of samples for taking part in the study will be performed by convenience sampling from athletic clubs in the academic and non-academic areas of Tehran province. Then all functional tests for all participants will be performed in 5 different conditions in 5 separate days in random order from 3-4 days.

Intervention groups
1
Description
Intervention group: siotaping® Method: This method is based on taping used for lateral ankle sprain.The foot is placed in a comfortable resting position with slight plantar flexion and the first I-strip is applied from middle of foot to just below the tibial tuberosity along muscle Anterior Tibialis. The second Y-strip is originated just above medial malleolus and passed under the heel and ended at fibular head point just near the insertion of first strip. The third one is placed on anterior side of ankle joint between medial and lateral malleolus. The last strip, is stretched under the foot, 6 inches above medial and lateral malleolus. All strips are stretched to approximately 100% of their resting length.

Description
Intervention group: Athletic taping Method: In this method, first we fasten pre-wrap on the target joint (ankle). Then, we use two pieces of 5 cm width tape and implement them on the beginning and the end of pre-wrap as the anchors. Third, we implement one strip from medial to lateral crossing under the heel, and the other strip from medial to lateral crossing behind the heel in order to support the ankle. Finally, medial and lateral heel locks techniques are used.

Description
Intervention group: Placebo-Kinesio taping: This method of taping is almost the same as the Kinesio taping, but we don't allow any tension along the tape.

4
Description
Intervention group: Placebo-athletic taping: This method of taping is almost the same as the athletic taping method, but there is no structural correction in the ankle joint.
