Origin to Insertion Kinesio Tapping vs Non-Directional Kinesio Tapping on Quadriceps Peak Torque

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Quadriceps Muscle Atrophy
• Interventions: Other: placebo; Other: Cura Kensio-tapping

• Registration Number: NCT05768022
• Lead Sponsor: University of Jazan

Brief Summary

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of kinesio tapping on electrical activity and peak torque of quadriceps during concentric and eccentric muscle contraction were carried out in the motion analysis Laboratory.

Detailed Description

A Pretest posttest control group design was used to. Two hundred normal subjects of both sexes were recruited.

Subjects were randomly assigned into two groups of equal number.

* Cura Kensio-tapping group: consisted of 100 subjects (females and males) will receive kinesio taping from origin to insertion on the superficial muscles of Quadriceps femoris (vastus medialis (VM), vastus lateralis (VL), rectus femoris (RF).

* Placebo-Group: consisted of 100 subjects (females and males) will receive placebo kinesio taping across quadriceps.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Peak Torque Measurement 2	After the application of tapping by 10 minutes	The peak torque of quadriceps muscle of dominant lower limb was measured using Biodex system 830-200 Isokinetic dynamometer.
Peak Torque Measurement 3	24 hours after tapping.	The peak torque of quadriceps muscle of dominant lower limb was measured using Biodex system 830-200 Isokinetic dynamometer.
Peak Torque Measurement 4	72 hours After tapping	The peak torque of quadriceps muscle of dominant lower limb was measured using Biodex system 830-200 Isokinetic dynamometer.
Peak Torque Measurement 1	Before tapping.	The peak torque of quadriceps muscle of dominant lower limb was measured using Biodex system 830-200 Isokinetic dynamometer.
Peak Torque Measurement 5	5 days after removal of tapping b	The peak torque of quadriceps muscle of dominant lower limb was measured using Biodex system 830-200 Isokinetic dynamometer.
