[Overuse syndrome in ballet: study of the effect of a tape bandage of the upper ankle joint with motion analysis].

In six ballet dancers with overuse syndromes of the foot a study on the effect of taping on stabilisation, proprioception and muscular activity was performed. By using synchronous surface electromyography and 3-dimensional motion analysis three standard ballet positions without and with applied tape were performed. Muscular activities of pronator muscles (peroneus longus) and supinator muscles (tibialis posterior) were recorded. EMG measurements showed significant differences between patients with stable or unstable ankles and painful or pain-free feet. Applying tape led to significant changes of muscle activities in height and antagonist reflex patterns. These changes were highest in dancers with unstable ankle joints and metatarsalgia.

[Complex movement analysis: dynamic study of the effect of a tape bandage on pronation in high-jumping with three-dimensional movement analysis and electromyography].

Overuse syndromes in the lower extremity are a frequent problem in athletics, especially in jumping events. Athletes notice a comfortable support by using ankle taping without restriction of their performance. Up to now no objective data is available about efficiency of taping against overpronation which is frequent in high jumping. In high jumping without boots little difference of pronation between taped and untaped take off leg was found. In contrast in jumping with spikes boots a marked pronation during take off was found, which was reduced by ankle taping with a reduction of maximum medial malleolar medialisation by 77%, reduction of pronation time by 33% and time of maximum pronation by 8.2% in the take off leg. Surface electromyography showed an increased activity of M. peroneus longus by 30.7% as a plantarflector and pronator muscle with ankle taping. Activity of other jump supporting muscles of the lower extremity was little influenced.

Modified rapid deployment hemostat bandage terminates bleeding in coagulopathic patients with severe visceral injuries.

BACKGROUND: We recently reported that a new dressing, the Modified Rapid Deployment Hemostat (MRDH) controlled bleeding in hypothermic coagulopathic swine after traumatic liver avulsion. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the MRDH in coagulopathic trauma patients undergoing abbreviated laparotomy. METHODS: A prospective, observational clinical trial of the MRDH dressing was performed at our Level One Trauma Center in patients with high-grade visceral injuries with coagulopathy who failed conventional therapy and required packing. Attending surgeons graded the injury and the adequacy of hemostasis following application of the dressing. Patients were followed until discharge or death. RESULTS: Ten patients were enrolled: nine severe hepatic injuries, and one major abdominal vascular injury. All patients were hypothermic, acidotic, and clinically coagulopathic. Intraoperative hemostasis was immediately obtained after MRDH placement in all cases except one. There was one death. CONCLUSION: The Modified Rapid Deployment Hemostat terminates bleeding from severe visceral injuries in coagulopathic patients undergoing abbreviated laparotomy.
