• Interventions: Other: Dynamic Tape® (Tape)

• Registration Number: NCT04022070
• Lead Sponsor: University of Seville

Detailed Description

Objective: To evaluate the evolution of this symptomatology prior to and thereafter the application of Dynamic Tape® bandage in a sample of 15 amateur athletes affected by plantar fasciitis. The assessment will be performed using an analogue visual scale (EVA). Material and methods: the aim of the study is to evaluate a group of 15 amateur athletic subjects , all individuals suffering plantar fasciitis without any previous or current treatment. The age, from 18 to 65 years old. Samplings will be performed intentionally without a control group.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Plantar fasciitis pain	7 days	Evaluation before and after a week of use of a Dynamic Tape. Visual analogic scale.; The visual analogue scale (VAS) is commonly used as the outcome measure for such studies. It is usually presented as a 100-mm horizontal line on which the patient's pain intensity is represented by a point between the extremes of "no pain at all" and "worst pain imaginable." The Primary and second Outcome Measures (pain, VAS) . Time Frame includes more than one time point.
