• Status: Not Yet Recruiting
• Phase: N/A
• Study type: Interventional
• Enrollment: 120 (estimated)
• Sponsor: The Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine · Academic / Other
• Sex: All
• Age: 30 Years – 80 Years
• Healthy volunteers: Not accepted

Summary

1. To observe the inducing and promoting effect of kinesio taping technique on the recovery of upper limb function in early-stage stroke patients. 2. To compare the different effects of kinesio tape and sports white tape on the induction and promotion of limb function in patients. 3. To verify that kinesio taping technique is a safe and promotable technical means for stroke patients.

Conditions

• Cerebral Infarction Recovery
• Rehabilitation Treatment
• Upper Extremity Motor Function
• Emg Biofeedback

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Experimental Group	The application methods of kinesiology tape for the experimental group are as follows: 1. Promoting supraspinatus muscle: Use an I-shaped tape (with natural tension). 2. Promoting the anterior fibers of the deltoid muscle: Use an I-shaped tape (with natural tension). 3. Promoting the posterior fibers of the deltoid muscle: Use an I-shaped tape (with natural tension).3. Promoting the posterior fibers of the deltoid muscle: Use an I-shaped tape (with natural tension). 4. Fixing the shoulder joint: Use an I-shaped tape (with moderate tension). 5. Inhibiting biceps brachii muscle / promoting triceps brachii muscle (depending on the patient's recovery stage and different functional impairments, different taping methods are used). 6. Promoting wrist extensor muscles / inhibiting wrist flexor muscles (depending on the patient's recovery stage and different functional impairments, different taping methods are used)
OTHER	Control group (placebo)	The control group was pasted with sports white tape (the pasting method was the same as above, replaced with sports white tape).
