چکیده
Objectives: Impaired proprioception and muscle weakness may not only be a consequence of knee 
osteoarthritis (OA) but also part of its pathogenesis. Thus, the enhancement of quadriceps strength 
and proprioceptive accuracy can play a pivotal role in the management of knee OA. This study aimed 
to investigate the effects of Kinesio tape and flexible knee orthosis in terms of clinical and 
neuromuscular outcomes in patients with knee OA.
Methods: This clinical trial was conducted on 56 patients with knee OA, randomly allocated to two groups: knee 
orthosis or Kinesio tape. The knee orthosis group wore a neoprene knee support for 4 weeks. For participants in the 
Kinesio tape group, tape was applied once a week, for 4 weeks. The primary outcomes were pain intensity and 
physical function evaluated through the visual analog scale and the Western Ontario and McMaster OA index. The 
secondary outcomes were concentric and isometric quadriceps strength, Joint Position Sense (JPS), Threshold to 
Detect Passive Motion (TTDPM), and force sense (FS), all measured by isokinetic dynamometry.
Results: All outcome measures were significantly improved in the orthosis group. The Kinesio tape group also 
demonstrated significant changes in all outcome measures except three proprioception components namely JPS 
(70° target), FS, and TTDPM. At the end of the fourth week, there were no significant between-group differences for 
measured parameters.
Conclusion: Wearing a flexible knee orthosis and/or Kinesio tape for 4 weeks significantly improved knee pain, 
physical function, and quadriceps strength. Although knee orthosis showed significant beneficial effects on various 
components of proprioception, there were no significant differences between the two groups at the end of the 4-
week intervention.
