简要总结
The aim of this study is to determine the effect kiensio taping in relieving pelvic girdle pain during pregnancy in terms of decrease pain and improving function and quality of life.
详细描述
Severity of pelvic girdle pain can be different, as a result of the progress of the disorders and subjective feeling of pain. According to Kanakaris an average severity of pain in pelvic girdle pain is 50-60 mm scale visual analogue scale. Results may vary according to different factors such as; pregnancy stage, age of the pregnant women, different body mass index. Beyond the discomfort and pain, pelvic girdle pain can also limit the performance of the activities of daily living such as; bending, lifting, sitting, sleeping, housework, long walking, and standing and thus adversely affect the quality of life of pregnant women. Unfortunately, the options for pain therapy in pregnant women are significantly limited due to the possible danger to both mother and fetus. Most of the standard drugs used affect the fetus and are not recommended, especially for long-term treatment.
There is very little clinical experience and only limited documentation for effectiveness of Kinesio taping on pelvic girdle pain during pregnancy. Because the existing treatments for pregnancy-related pelvic girdle pain are not adequately known and are not found to be reliable by patients and clinicians. Kinesio taping may be a potential treatment if it is an effective and tolerable method. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to determine the influence of Kinesio taping pelvic girdle pain in pregnant women

结局指标
主要结局
assessment of pain intensity
时间窗: At baseline and after 2 weeks
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) is a widely used method for assessing pain intensity, functioning as a subjective measure of treatment efficacy. It involves marking a point on a 10-cm line that indicates pain levels from "no pain" to "worst pain." Studies validate VAS as a reliable interval scale for measuring both acute and chronic pain, making it a useful tool in clinical practice. Pain levels are measured before and after 5 days of treatment, followed by another recording after re-application of the tape after an additional 5 days.
