About this study

Official title: Origin to Insertion Kinesio Tapping vs Non-Directional Kinesio Tapping on Quadriceps Peak

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of kinesio tapping on electrical activity and peak torque of quadriceps during concentric and eccentric muscle contraction were carried out in the motion analysis Laboratory.

Read the detailed description

A Pretest posttest control group design was used to. Two hundred normal subjects of both sexes were recruited.

Subjects were randomly assigned into two groups of equal number.

  • Cura Kensio-tapping group: consisted of 100 subjects (females and males) will receive kinesio taping from origin to insertion on the superficial muscles of Quadriceps femoris (vastus medialis (VM), vastus lateralis (VL), rectus femoris (RF).
  • Placebo-Group: consisted of 100 subjects (females and males) will receive placebo kinesio taping across quadriceps.
Being tested
Cura Kensio-tapping, placebo

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Peak Torque Measurement 1

    The peak torque of quadriceps muscle of dominant lower limb was measured using Biodex system 830-200 Isokinetic dynamometer.

    Measured: Before tapping.

  2. Peak Torque Measurement 2

    The peak torque of quadriceps muscle of dominant lower limb was measured using Biodex system 830-200 Isokinetic dynamometer.

    Measured: After the application of tapping by 10 minutes

  3. Peak Torque Measurement 3

    The peak torque of quadriceps muscle of dominant lower limb was measured using Biodex system 830-200 Isokinetic dynamometer.

    Measured: 24 hours after tapping.

  4. Peak Torque Measurement 4

    The peak torque of quadriceps muscle of dominant lower limb was measured using Biodex system 830-200 Isokinetic dynamometer.

    Measured: 72 hours After tapping

  5. Peak Torque Measurement 5

    The peak torque of quadriceps muscle of dominant lower limb was measured using Biodex system 830-200 Isokinetic dynamometer.

    Measured: 5 days after removal of tapping b

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Cura Kensio-tapping in people with Quadriceps Muscle Atrophy, run by University of Jazan at 1 site in Saudi Arabia.

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 5 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 14 Mar 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 Saudi Arabia. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Peak Torque Measurement 1 (time frame: Before tapping.). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 14 Mar 2023.
