Sponsor's own description
The purpose of this clinical study is to investigate effects of Kinesio taping (KT) combined with dry needling (DN) on myofascial trigger points (MTrPs) in post-stroke hemiplegic shoulder-hand syndrome (SHS). Methods: A prospective, double-blind randomized controlled trial was conducted on 84 SHS patients, who were randomized into three groups: DN (Group A), KT (Group B), and DN+KT (Group C), all receiving standard rehabilitation. VAS, ADL, FMA-UE, PROM, and 8-figure dimensional difference were assessed pre- and post-28-day treatment. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 27.0, with paired t-test for intragroup comparisons and independent sample t-test for intergroup comparisons, and statistical significance was set at P\<0.05.
