Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The amount of pain they feel in the knee. Timepoint: The patient's pain will be measured before the kinesio tape is applied and 30 minutes after the application. Method of measurement: Pain is measured on the Visual Analogue Scale, a ruler numbered from 0 to 10. The number 0 indicates a painless condition and the number 10 is the most severe pain imaginable for the patient.;Muscle activity of Vastus medialis and semi tendinosus. Timepoint: The activity of the vastus medialis and semi tendinosus muscles of the patient is measured before applying the kinesio tape and throughout the patient evaluation. Method of measurement: Measurement of muscle activity is measured by an electromyographic device.;Squat test and sit to stand test performance balance indicators. Timepoint: Before applying the kinesio t?pe and 30 minutes after applying the tip, we ask the patient to do a squat test and sit-and-take test, and functional balance indices are measured before and after applying the tip. Method of measurement: Performance equilibrium indices are measured by March software and force plate. | — |
