简要总结
The aim of this study is to estimate the effect of Kinesio tape (KT) combined with supervised exercise programs compared to exercise alone on pain, lumbar range of motion, and self-reported disability of adults with mechanical low back pain (LBP).
Methods: This was a randomized, controlled clinical trial carried out on 60 individuals with mechanical LBP. Participants were randomly assigned to the control group (n=30) that received McKenzie exercises for 7 days or experimental group (n=30) that received KT application in addition to McKenzie exercises for 7 days. Pain measured by visual analogue scale, lumbar range of motion, and the disability measured by Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) were used as outcome measures. Pre and Post measurements were taken at baseline and after 7 days.

结局指标
主要结局
Visual analogue scale (VAS)
时间窗: The pain was measured at the end of intervention (7th day).
Pain was measured using a 10 cm visual analogue scale (VAS). The participants placed a mark on the line that best represented their perception of pain at that instant. The VAS score was measured in cm from the left hand end of the line to the mark.
次要结局
- The Oswestry Disability Index (ODI)(The ODI was measured at the end of intervention (7th day) 2 minutes after the pain assesment.)
