Аннотация
BACKGROUND: There are current studies on kinesio taping (KT) application after total knee arthroplasty (TKA), but there is no definite consensus on its effectiveness and application method yet. This study aims to evaluates the effectiveness of KT applied added to the conservative postoperative physiotherapy program (CPPP) after TKA on postoperative edema, pain, range of motion, and functions on the early period.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: This prospective, randomized, controlled, double-blind study was conducted in with 187 patients undergoing TKA. The patients were divided into 3 groups as kinesio taping (KTG), sham taping (STG) and control group (CG). KT lymphedema technique and epidermis, dermis, fascia technique were applied on the 1st and 3rd days postoperatively. Extremity circumference and joint range of motion (ROM) were measured. Visual Analog Scale, Oxford Knee Scale filled. All patients were evaluated preoperatively, on the 1st day, 3rd day, and 10th day postoperatively.
RESULTS: There were 62 patients in CTG, 62 patients in STG, and 63 patients in CG. In all circumference measurements, the difference between post-op10th day (PO10D) diameter and preoperative diameter measurement was less in KTG than in CG and STG (p < 0.001). CG was higher than the STG in the ROM values measured at PO10D.There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of OKS values (P:0.648). CG was higher than STG in post-op 1st day VAS values (P:0.042).
CONCLUSION: Adding KT to CPP after TKA reduces edema in the acute phase, but has no additive effect on pain, functionality, and ROM.
