What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This study investigates how kinesiotaping, applied with different tension levels using a fascia correction technique, affects the thickness of fascial layers and nearby muscles in healthy adults. Researchers use ultrasound to measure changes in the forearm's fascia, muscles, and subcutaneous tissue. The goal is to understand the immediate physical effects of this taping method.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
kinesiotaping applied using the fascia correction technique
What this could lead to
If it works, this could help refine taping techniques for rehabilitation or sports medicine.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study in healthy volunteers, so results may not apply to people with injuries or conditions.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

80 people

The number who actually took part.

Started

May 2024

Finished

Aug 2024

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Ages

18 to 60 years

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Accepted

You do not need to have the condition being studied to take part.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: A total of 80 healthy volunteers aged 18 years or older were included in the study. Participants had no current or previous serious musculoskeletal injury, pain, or neurological disorder affecting the upper extremity within the past six months Exclusion Criteria: Individuals were excluded if they were pregnant; regularly participated in high-level athletic training or competitive sports, had a history of skin allergy to adhesive materials; or had previous kinesiotaping application within the last month.
