About this study
Official title: Effect of Kinesio Taping and Proprioceptive Exercise on the Stability of Knee in Amateur Soccer Players
Objective: The general objective of this study is to determine the possible beneficial effect of the application of kinesiotaping, as well as the performance of proprioceptive exercises on parameters related to knee stability, such as the incidence of injuries, pain, static stability Or dynamics, and flexibility, in amateur soccer players, with a workload of 3 days per week plus the match.
Material and methods: Amateur soccer players are divided into 3 groups.

Group 1 (G1) performs proprioceptive exercises plus the application of kinesiotaping without tension in the knee.
Group 2 (G2) performs proprioceptive exercises plus the application of kinesiotaping with tension in the knee.
Group 3 (G3) is placed kinesiotaping with tension in the knee, without proprioception exercises.
The treatment will last four weeks and three evaluations, one before treatment, another at two weeks and the last one at the end of treatment.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Kinesio Taping with tension and exercises and Kinesio Taping with tension in people with Injury of Musculoskeletal System, run by University of Valencia at 1 site in Spain.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
KOOS knee questionnaire (time frame: 4 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Aug 2017.
