简要总结
Type of this study: Prospective randomized controlled study. Purpose: The aim of this study is to compare the acute effect of pain level, lower extremity functionality level and plantar fascia flexibility in patients with plantar fasciitis receiving Exportacorporeal Shock Therapy (ESWT).
To compare the acute effect of pain level, lower extremity functionality level and plantar fascia flexibility in patients with plantar fasciitis who received KT application in addition to ESWT treatment.
To compare the acute effect of pain level, lower extremity functionality level and plantar fascia flexibility in patients with plantar fasciitis receiving placebo application.
90 volunteers will be included in the study as ESWT (n=30), placebo ESWT (n=30), ESWT and KT (n=30) application groups. How effective is ESWT, ESWT and Kinesiotape versus placebo ESWT acutely in the treatment of plantar fasciitis?
详细描述
Plantar fasciitis is a common disease in athletes and the sedentary population, accompanied by pain and limitation of foot function. Hot-cold tampon application, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, heel cushion, night splint, plantar fascia and Achilles stretching exercise, kinesio taping (CT), ultrasound, and extracorporeal shock wave therapy are the methods used in the treatment of plantar fasciitis. The aim of this study is to compare the acute effect on pain level, lower extremity functionality and plantar fascia flexibility in patients with plantar fasciitis receiving ESWT, patients with plantar fasciitis receiving Kinesiotape in addition to ESWT, and patients with plantar fasciitis receiving placebo ESWT.
Age (years), height (cm) and body weight (kg) measured with an adult scale with a mechanical height measure, gender, occupation, affected side and dominant side of patients diagnosed with plantar fasciitis will be recorded.
Patients will be divided into three groups: ESWT (Group 1), ESWT and KT (Group 2), and Placebo/Sham (Group 3) application groups. ESWT (BTL-6000SWT, UK); A single session will be applied at 10 Hz frequency, 2.5 Barr energy and 2000 shocks/session.
For KT application, a tape consisting of 96% cotton, 4% lycra, water-resistant, porous and adhesive, 5 cm wide and 0.5 mm thick will be used. Taping will be done after the ESWT session and the tape will be asked to remain for a week. After the first examination of the physical therapy and rehabilitation specialist physician in the placebo/Sham group, the patient will be listened to the sound of the device through the audio device and ESWT application will be applied without the device working.
For clinical follow-up of the patients, visual pain scale (VAS) score, lower extremity functional scale score will be used before and one week after treatment, and plantar fascia flexibility will be evaluated.

Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)
时间窗: baseline, post treatment (at 1th week)
). VAS, with numbers from 0 to 10 on a 10 cm horizontal line; 0 means "no pain"; It was stated to the patients that 10 represented "unbearable pain". The degree of pain was recorded numerically between 0 and 10
