Abstract
Purpose: This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of kinesiotaping on winged scapula in children with Erb{u2019}s palsy. Patients and procedures: Thirty chidren with Erb`s palsy participated in this study, their age ranged between 1 and 3 years. They were randomly assigned into two groups of equal number. The control group (A) (n=15) received a designed physical therapy program and the study group (B) (n=15) received the same program used in group (A) in addition to 2 scapular kinesiotaping. All children received the study protocol for 45 min/session, 3 days / week for three successive months. Scapular winging was evaluated before and after the study protocol by using posture zone software. Results: Comparison of post treatment results between groups revealed significant improvement in scapular winging in favor of the study group. Conclusion: Ultimately, it was revealed that kinesiotaping had a beneficial effect on improving scapular winging by facilitating middle and lower fibers of trapezius muscle in children with Erb{u2019}s palsy
