Sponsor's own description
BACKGROUND: Walking and balance problems are among the most common problems in individuals with cerebral palsy (CP). Hip abduction and extension muscle function insufficiencies are common in children with CP. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the immediate and long-term effects of Kinesio® Taping (KT) applied on the gluteus maximus and gluteus medius muscles on walking, functionality, balance, and participation in children with unilateral spastic CP. METHOD: This study was designed as a randomized controlled trial. The study included 20 children with unilateral spastic CP: 11 in the taping group and 9 in the control group. KT was applied in the taping group for 4 weeks in addition to a physiotherapy program. The control group received only the physiotherapy program. Body structure and functions were evaluated with the Pediatric Berg Balance Scale (PBBS). Activity was evaluated with the Timed Up and Go Test (TUG), Functional Mobility Scale (FMS), Gross Motor Function Scale (GMFM-88), the BTS G-Walk Spatiotemporal Gait Analysis System. Participation was evaluated with the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM). Evaluations were made at the beginning of the study and 30 minutes after the first tape application, and at the end of 4 weeks in the taping group. The level of significance was accepted as p\<0.05.
