| Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the therapeutic effects of kinesio taping (KT) and localsubacromial injection in patients with subacromial impingement, syndrome (SIS) with regard to pain,range of motion (ROM) and disability.Methods: Sixty-one patients (48 females and 13 males; mean age: 43.04± 6.31, years) with SIS wereenrolled into the study. The patients were randomized into two treatment groups receiving either a singlecorticosteroid and local anesthetic (LA) injection, or kinesio taping performed three times by intervals of 3day. Visual analog scale (VAS) was used to assess pain intensity, range of motion (ROM) degrees of, shoulderwere recorded and Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) was, performed to evaluate functionaldisability, before treatment, at theŞrst and fourth, weeks after therapies. A exercise program was prescribed for both groups including pendulum, active range of motion (ROM) and strengthening exercises.Results: Pain, functional outcome measures were determined to have improved signiŞcantly in bothgroups at the end of therapies atŞrst and fourth weeks (p < 0.05), but these improvements were moresigniŞcant in the injection group than in kinesio taping group (p < 0.05). The improvements in pain atrest, shoulder abduction degrees, and SPADI scores atŞrst and fourth weeks were statistically higher ininjection group than in kinesio taping group.Conclusion: Although the improvement in pain intensity at rest, ROM and disability were better withlocal injection, KT may be an alternative noninvasive method to local subacromial injection for patientssuffering from subacromial impingement syndrome.Level of Evidence: Level I, Therapeutic study.© 2016 Turkish Association of Orthopaedics and Traumatology.
