Dissertation note: Thesis (Ph.D.) - Cairo University - Faculty of Physical Therapy - Department of Biomechanics Summary: Patellar taping has long been reported to be effective in relieving pain in patients with patello - femoral pain syndrome. Yet, there is lack of knowledge that supports its use in knee osteoarthritis (OA) management. The purpose of the study was to examine the effects of therapeutic patellar taping on concentric and eccentric quadriceps muscle peak torques, Visual Analogue Scale pain score, 6 - minute walking distance, and stair ambulation time in patients with generalized knee OA. Thirty female patients with symptomatic knee OA with mean age 51.8 ± 6.3 years, height 1.62 ± 0.04 m, weight 85.7 ± 10.2 kg, and BMI 32.56 ± 3.26 kg / m2 participated in the study. They were tested under three taping conditions that were tested randomly; therapeutic, placebo and no - tape. Data were collected using the biodex Isokinetic system, VAS, 6- minute walking Test and Timed Stair Ambulation Test. Repeated measure MANOVA revealed that the quadriceps muscle peak torques and 6 - Minute Walking distance increased significantly (p < 0.05) and the VAS score and stair ambulation time decreased significantly with therapeutic tape use compared with the other two tapes
