Background:
Patellar tendinopathy is a common inflammatory condition in athletes who undergo large volumes of running and jumping. Kinesio-tape® (KT) is proposed to provide pain relief; however, its effect has not been examined on patellar tendinopathy. Objective: To examine the effects of KT on pain modulation for active individuals with patellar tendinopathy during functional activities. Methods: Thirteen symptomatic knees from seven college-aged females (6 bilateral; 1 unilateral) were included. Participants underwent three data collection sessions with KT, sham, and no tape (NT) in a randomized order. During the session, participants performed a maximum vertical jump, single-leg squats and isometric knee extension. The KT intervention was applied according to the KT manual and the sham utilized the same pattern without tension. Pain level was evaluated using the numeric pain scale before, during and after each activity. Function was assessed as maximum vertical jump height and maximum isometric strength. A separate repeated measures ANOVA was used to compare each dependent variable (pain level, vertical jump height, and isometric strength) among the conditions. Results: Reported pain scores were significantly lower (p = 0.05) during the maximal vertical jump test for KT (3.38 ± 1.26) compared to NT (4.54 ± 2.22). Significantly lower jump heights were found under KT (17.73 ± 3.06in) during the maximum vertical jump test compared to sham (18.65 ± 2.17in, p = 0.000) and NT (18.18 ± 2.93in, p = 0.008). Conclusions: The use of the KT tape with a tendon corrective strip and muscle facilitative strip was effective for decreasing pain associated with patellar tendinopathy during jump landing but led to decreased maximum jump height. |
