RESUMO:

Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee is a disease characterized mainly by the wear and tear of the articular structures, which affects 6% to 13% of men and 7% to 19% of women, and their prevalence may be increased proportionally with increasing age. Signs and symptoms include pain, joint stiffness and loss of function. In this perspective, kinesio taping (KT) appears as an alternative therapeutic resource for the treatment of this type of patient. However, the current evidence on this technique is limited and conflicting, making its effects on the symptomatology of the disease still uncertain. Thus, the present study will evaluate the effects of KT application on muscle strength, pain, physical function, edema and quality of life of elderly women with knee OA. It will be a randomized, blind clinical trial in which 45 volunteers will be allocated to three groups: G1 (placebo group), G2 (control group) and G3 (intervention group). The G1 will be submitted to the placebo (no tension) application of KT on the rectos femoris muscle; the G2 will receive a protocol of a health education activity session lasting 60 minutes and finally the G3 will be submitted to the simultaneous application (with tension) of two KT techniques. All groups will be evaluated before, immediately after and 48 hours after the application. To measure the variables, the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), Lysholm Knee Scoring Scale and Medical Outcomes Study 36-Short Form Health Survey (SF-36), the Visual Analogue Scale (EVA) of a maximal repetition (1RM) and a 6-minute walk (6MWT) and the perimetry and volumetry. Statistical analysis will be done using SPSS® software (Statistical Package Social Science) version 20.0. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Levene tests will be applied to evaluate the normality and homogeneity of the data, respectively. Intra and intergroup comparisons will be evaluated using analysis of variance ANOVA of mixed model. In the presence of a significant F, the Benferroni pot-hoc test will be used to identify where the difference occurred. For all statistical analyzes, a significance level of 5% (p <0.05) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) will be adopted.
