Efectos del vendaje Low-Dye sobre el pierevisión narrativa

Resumen

The Low-Dye tape is considered the gold standard among the tape techniques for the control of the fall of the longitudinal arch of the foot according to the literature. This tape technique has attracted the attention of numerous studies in recent years, in which its mechanical and clinical effects have been evaluated. Kinetically, the collected clinical trials coincide in the generation of a decrease in plantar pressures in the medial region of the forefoot and its aument in the lateral midfoot region. Kinematically, the study of the internal longitudinal arch has focused the attention of a greater number of authors, due to the anatomical location of the Low-Dye tape. The main kinematic effect produced by the placement of the Low-Dye tape consists in a decrease in the fall of the internal longitudinal arch. Finally, at a clinical level, the improvement of pain in patients with plantar fasciitis is highlighted by the use of the Low-Dye tape. In conclusion, the kinetic and kinematic effects observed would be related to a decrease in the net moment of pronation force that supports the foot as well as the net moment of dorsal flexion that support the joints of the internal column and could favor the establishment of the Windlass mechanism. By favoring the mechanism of Windlass, tensile stress that support various structures, such as the plantar fascia, decreases, improving pain related to this pathology according to the literature. Despite this, it is necessary to carry out more trials to evaluate the effects of this bandage
