Abstract
Background: Sacroiliac joint dysfunction accounts for up to 30% of patients with low back pain. As it plays a major role in locomotion and mobility, pain associated with sacroiliac joint dysfunction often interferes with daily activities and leads to reduced functionality. Rigid taping techniques are often used for conservative treatment of sacroiliac joint dysfunction related symptoms; however, its effectiveness has not been systematically evaluated. Purpose: This study investigated the effect of repeated application of rigid tape for anterior innominate correction on pain, malalignment and mobility deficits associated with anterior innominate sacroiliac joint dysfunction. Methods: A randomized controlled trial with two parallel groups (experimental and control) with a 1:1 allocation ratio was used. Thirty females with sacroiliac joint dysfunction participated. Rigid tape for anterior innominate correction was applied to the participants in the experimental group. Tape was re-applied every three days for 2 weeks. Participants in the control group did not receive any intervention. 2x2 (group x time) mixed design MANOVA assessed effects of tape on pain; anterior innominate rotation; active hip joint rotation range of motion; and hip joint position sense. Chi-square and McNemar tests assessed effects of tape on Gillet and Sitting forward flexion mobility tests; Patrick, Posterior shear and Gaenslen pain provocation tests
