Summary

\_De Quervain's tenosynovitis is inflammation and swelling of the tendon caused by repetitive thumb movements. In severe cases, the tendon sliding is limited, resulting in limited joint range of motion and affecting the quality of life. Kinesio ®can effectively improve pain, edema, and assist functional movements. The elasticity of the patch creates wrinkles to relax the extensor pollicis brevis and the abductor longus muscle of the thumb. The dynamic tape is a new type of treatment. The material has high resilience. Its purpose is to help muscles and tissues absorb external forces and reduce tissue energy consumption. By adjusting the human motor control mode, the work of injured tissues can be reduced, thereby improving the discomfort of sports injuries , accelerating the recovery of injured tissues and reducing the load of the extensor pollicis brevis tendon and the abductor pollicis longus tendon to assist the two tendons in their work. However, in the past, there was no dynamic taping applied to the study of De Quervain's tenosynovitis, and no dynamic taping and Kinesio ® applied to the study of De Quervain's tenosynovitis.

Detailed description

PURPOSE:To explore the effectiveness of dynamic taping intervention in cases of stenosis of the De Quervain's tenosynovitis and the comparison with the effectiveness of Kinesio ®\_ METHODS:The study collected data on cases of De Quervain's tenosynovitis in the rehabilitation department of a hospital in northern Taiwan. The tape was performed by a functional therapist trained Kinesio ® C level and dynamic tape level 1 course. The finger pinch strength and grip strength were assessed immediately before and after the intervention; The Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation was used to assess pain and difficulty in performing activities of daily living. Obtain data after the case actually performs activities of daily living. Data analysis: Nonparametric test will be used in the comparison of the pre- and post-evaluation data inter group. The analysis will be carried out using SPSS Statistic (v20.0) and α\<0.05.
