Abstract

Background and Aim: Stroke is a major cause of disability. Upper extremity motor impairment is one of the most common consequences after Stroke. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of Kinesiotape (KT) on hand function dexterity and Activities of Daily Living as well as Spasticity in Stroke patients. Materials and methods: Eight individuals with Stroke, and the mean age of 50-63 years, participated in the present clinical trial and pretest-posttest study. An I strip taping was placed on extensor muscles of the participants' forearms. Spasticity, Activities of Daily Livings, and hand function dexterity were evaluated immediately and one month after kinesiotaping using the Modified Ashworth Scale (MMAS), Barthel Index, and Nine Holle Peg test. Results: At the immediate assessment, there were significant differences between hand Dexterity Function and Barthel Index in the pre-test and post-test (P-value ≥ 0/001). Secondary assessment was done after one month and the results showed similar significant differences but there was no significant change in flexor muscles Spasticity of the hand after the intervention. Conclusion: The current preliminary study indicated that KT in the direction of the extensor muscle could result in better hand function and recovery Activities of Daily Living.
