[Purpose] This study determined the effects of kinesiology taping on the upper-extremity function and activities of daily living of patients with hemiplegia. [Subjects] The experimental group and control group comprised 15 hemiplegia patients each. [Methods] This study was performed from June 4 to December 22, 2012, involving 30 hemiplegia patients. The experimental and controls groups performed task practices for 30 minutes, 3 times per week for 28 weeks with and without taping, respectively. [Results] After treatment, there were significant differences in every outcome measures within each group except for the Brunnstrom recovery stage of the hand. However, there was a significant difference in functional independence movements between the groups. [Conclusion] Task practice has the same effectiveness regardless of the taping of the upper extremities. Nevertheless, taping is helpful for improving both the functions and activities of daily living in patients with hemiplegia.
[目的] 本研究旨在确定肌内效贴布对偏瘫患者上肢功能及日常生活活动能力的影响。[对象] 实验组和对照组各有15例偏瘫患者。[方法] 本研究于2012年6月4日至12月22日进行，纳入30例偏瘫患者。实验组和对照组分别在有和没有贴布的情况下进行任务练习，每次30分钟，每周3次，共28周。[结果] 治疗后，除手部的Brunnstrom恢复阶段外，每组内各项结局指标均有显著差异。然而，两组间在功能独立性运动方面存在显著差异。[结论] 无论上肢是否贴布，任务练习都具有相同的效果。尽管如此，贴布有助于改善偏瘫患者的功能及日常生活活动能力。
