    EFFECT OF KINESIO TAPING ON GAIT PERFORMANCE AND BALANCE IN CHILDREN WITH HEMIPLEGIC CEREBRAL PALSY
    (Turkey Assoc Physiotherapists, 2017) Ozmen, Tarik; Acar, Ece; Zoroglu, Tuba; Isik, Hammet
    Purpose: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of kinesio taping (KT) on gait performance and balance in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy (CP). Methods: Nineteen ambulant children with spastic hemiplegic CP (mean age; 11.63 +/- 3.59 years, 8 boys, 11 girls) participated in this study. Passive dorsi flexion and plantar flexion range of motion (ROM) of ankle were measured with a goniometer in a supine position. Plantar flexor muscle tone and gait performance were evaluated by Modified Ashworth Scale and One-Minute Walk Test. Balance was evaluated with Pediatric Balance Scale (PBS) and Modified Timed Up Go (mTUG) Test. After pre-evaluation, kinesio tape was applied over the gastrocnemius and tibialis anterior muscles of hemiplegic side. Results: The plantar flexor muscle tone and ankle ROM unchanged immediately and 48 h after KT application (p>0.05). However, there were significant differences in measurements of gait performance, PBS, mTUG test at 48 h after KT application (p<0.05), but not immediately (p>0.05). Discussion: It is concluded that KT has not an effect on ankle plantar flexor muscle spasticity and ankle ROM, but improves gait performance and balance in children with hemiplegic CP at 48 h after application.

    The Effect of Kinesio Taping on Muscle Pain, Sprint Performance, and Flexibility in Recovery From Squat Exercise in Young Adult Women
    (Human Kinetics Publ Inc, 2016) Ozmen, Tarik; Aydogmus, Mert; Dogan, Hanife; Acar, Derya; Zoroglu, Tuba; Willems, Mark
    Context: Kinesio taping (KT) is a taping technique extensively used in rehabilitation of sports injuries; however, the effect of KT on delayed-onset muscle soreness is not entirely clear. Objectives: To investigate the effect of kinesio tape on the quadriceps femoris on muscle pain, flexibility, and sprint performance after squat exercise. Design: Crossover study. Setting: University research laboratory. Participants: 19 female university students (age 21.0 +/- 1.2 y, weight 53.0 +/- 4.6 kg, height 164 +/- 4 cm). Main Outcome Measures: Pressure-pain threshold for quadriceps femoris was recorded using pressure algometry. Quadriceps femoris flexibility was measured as the range of motion of knee flexion with a stainless steel goniometer. Sprint-speed measurements were conducted using photocells placed at 0 and 20 m. All participants completed both conditions (KT application and no KT application) after a 1-wk washout period. Measurements were taken at baseline and 48 h postexercise. For the KT condition, KT was applied immediately before the exercise protocol and remained on the skin for 48 h. Results: Squat exercise reduced flexibility and increased pain and sprint time compared with baseline. KT application resulted in similar sprint time and muscle pain as the no-KT condition but maintained flexibility compared with baseline. Conclusions: KT application immediately before squat exercise has no effect on muscle pain and short sprint performance but maintains muscle flexibility at 2 days of recovery.

    Evaluation of cervical endurance by craniocervical flexion test in patients with subacromial impingement syndrome: a preliminary study
    (2022) Zoroglu, Tuba; Basar, Selda
    Aim: The aim of the study is to evaluate deep cervical flexor endurance in patients with subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS) and compare it with norm values proven in the literature in asymptomatic individuals. Materials and Methods: The patients’ age, weight, height, duration of complaints and dominant side information were recorded. 35 patients (25 female, 10 male) diagnosed with SIS by physicians participated in the study. Pain intensity was evaluated by numerical rating scale at rest, during elevation and at night. Craniocervical flexion test (CFT) is used for evaluating cervical endurance. “Stabilizer Pressure Biofeedback” device is used for this test. Two types of points are obtained as a result of this test. One is the CFT activation score, which expresses the activation level of the deep cervical muscles, and the other is the CFT performance index, which expresses the endurance of the deep cervical muscles. Results: Both the activation score (3.9±1.9) and the performance index (31.4±14.2) of CFT were significantly different in patients with SIS when compared with those of asymptomatic individuals. Conclusion: Cervical endurance is reduced in patients with SIS. Treatments including cervical stabilization should be planned in these patients.
