About this study
Kinesio tape is used successfully in the control of edema related to the extremity, especially in the control of lymphedema that develops after surgery.Kinesiotape is a non-allergic elastic tape applied to the skin surface.There are publications showing that kinesio tape applications are beneficial for edema control after interventional procedures such as anterior cruciate ligament surgery and knee prosthesis related to orthopedic surgical interventions. There is no publication on the effectiveness of kinesio tape application in the control and rehabilitation of post-cast edema of wrist fractures.It is planned to investigate the positive effects of kinesio tape in edema control and rehabilitation.
Read the detailed description
The prevalence of distal radius fracture is increasing day by day. Circular cast is applied in 70-80% of patients treated for distal radius fractures.During the rehabilitation of patients after plaster application, joint stiffness, swelling on the hand and wrist, and edema are frequently encountered.Edema in the hand and wrist negatively affects the daily activities of patients, their quality of life, wrist and finger functions.
Edema is the main problem in rehabilitation after upper extremity injuries.It is known that fibrosis and adhesions in soft tissues develop as a result of prolonged extremity edema.
Elevation, massage, cold application, pressure gloves are used for edema control.
Kinesio tape is used successfully in the control of edema related to the extremity, especially in the control of lymphedema that develops after surgery.Kinesiotape is a non-allergic elastic tape applied to the skin surface. Kinesio Tape working mechanism opens the distance between the skin and subcutaneous tissues after it is applied to the skin and increases lymphatic drainage.
Kinesio tape also has the effect of supporting the joint and soft tissues around the joint.
Research on kinesio tape has generally focused on the control of lymphedema that develops after breast cancer surgery or stroke.
There are publications showing that kinesio tape applications are beneficial for edema control after interventional procedures such as anterior cruciate ligament surgery and knee prosthesis related to orthopedic surgical interventions.
Considering the studies conducted for edema control in patients treated for distal radius fractures, the effect of massage applications on edema has been investigated and it has been shown that massage has positive effects on edema control and wrist functions(9).
In another study, the effectiveness of modified massage methods in the treatment of edema was investigated and its positive effects were observed. There is no publication on the effectiveness of kinesio tape application in the control and rehabilitation of post-cast edema of wrist fractures. It is planned to investigate the positive effects of kinesio tape in edema control and rehabilitation.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
kinesiotapingOther
Kinesio tape will be attached with lymphedema technique.
The bands will be removed prior to each assessment so that they do not affect the evaluator's blinding. After evaluation, the new tape will be fitted by the invesitgatör
exerciseOther
Wrist, finger, elbow range of motion and stretching exercises will be taught to the patients and given as home exercises.
In addition, patients will be given a leaflet containing illustrated and explanatory exercise visuals.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Experimental group | Experimental | After the initial evaluation, the patients will be randomly divided into two groups as the Experimental group and the control group.Experimental group will receive kinesiotape treatment in addition to those applied in the control group.
Kinesiotape to the kinesio tape group will be done by a PM\&R spesialist doctor who has a certificate of kinesiotaping, in accordance with the literature, using the lymphedema method. Receives: Other: kinesiotaping; Other: exercise |
| Control group | Other | Elevation and cold application, which is applied in the prevention and treatment of classical edema, will be recommended to the control group.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
volume measurement
The volume measurement of the patients after the cast will be measured with the upper extremity volumetric measuring device.
The measurement will be made in comparison with each intact extremity. The measurement will be made standing up and at room temperature.Both extremity volume data will be recorded.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing kinesiotaping and exercise in people with Distal Radius Fracture, run by Ahi Evran University Education and Research Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).
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 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Aug 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). 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?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
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?
volume measurement (time frame: 0 (baseline)). The study lists 9 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05623865, which also lists 6 linked publications.
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 2 Aug 2023.
