Objective: To explore the curative effect of occupational therapy combined with kinesio taping on pronation movement of the forearm of hemiplegic children. Methods: Forty children with spastic hemiplegia were selected, and randomly divided into the treatment group and the control group. The treatment group received occupational therapy combined with kinesio taping, and the control group was given occupational therapy only. The upper extremity muscle tone, forearm rotation angle and hand function were evaluated and compared before and after treatments. Results: The upper extremity muscle tone, forearm rotation angle and hand function in two groups were improved after treatment for 6 months, and those in the treatment group were more satisfactory than in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: The occupational therapy combined with kinesio taping can effectively reduce the flexor muscle tone of the upper limb of children with hemiplegia and improve the pronation range of the forearm and hand function of the children. |
