简要总结

The most
common injury in blunt thoracic trauma is chest wall injury, which includes
rib fractures. 90% of these cases are managed non-operatively. Pain control
is the mainstay of treatment which helps to improve pulmonary function and
reduce associated complications. Only analgesics like the non-steroidal
anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) opioids have numerous pharmacological side
effects. In various studies done on opioids,
depicts their dependence, withdrawal and various other complications. There
exists girth in quality literature studying the role of non-pharmacological
interventions like kinesiotaping in providing pain relief in chest trauma
patients. Kinesiotaping
(KT) is drug free elastic therapeutic tape used for various musculoskeletal
problems such as injury, dysfunction, and pain.  KT is a thin elastic tape that stretches to
120-140 % of its original length, and then subsequently recoils back to its
original length, exerting a proposed pulling force to the skin. However, the
exact mechanism of KT is unclear, investigators assert several mechanisms
such as supporting injured muscles and joints, improving fascia function
and position, increasing segmental stability, activation of the blood and
lymph flow by lifting the skin, decreasing pain by reducing nociceptive
stimuli. The structure of the tape and the application technique result in
the therapeutic effects of kinesiology taping. These effects include
improving circulation of the blood and lymph, decreasing pain, stimulating
proprioception, stabilizing particulars and restoring muscle tone. It was
significantly popular after it was seen on athletes at 2008 Olympic Games.
KT has been evaluated in several studies for low back pain and other
musculoskeletal injuries especially in sports medicine. So, recent
studies have shown that use of KT along with conventional analgesia is
associated with reduction in pain in isolated rib fracture in thoracic trauma
patient.
