Patellar taping techniques (a) Patellar taping (medial glide)
Patellar taping techniques (a) Patellar taping (medial glide). Tape is applied to the lateral aspect of the patella. The patella is glided medially and the tape is anchored to the skin over the medial aspect of the knee. When taping is completed, skin creases should be evident on the inside of the knee, indicating adequate tension on the patella (b) Patellar taping (correction of lateral tilt). Tape is applied to the medial aspect of the patella and secured to the soft tissue on the inner aspect of the knee (c) Patellar taping (correction of rotation). Tape is applied to the inferior pole of the patella and taken medially and superiorly to rotate the patella (d) Patellar taping (correction of inferior tilt). Tape is applied across the superior pole of the patella with sufficient firmness to elevate the inferior pole Source: Anterior knee pain, Brukner & Khan’s Clinical Sports Medicine: Injuries, Volume 1, 5e Citation: Brukner P, Clarsen B, Cook J, Cools A, Crossley K, Hutchinson M, McCrory P, Bahr R, Khan K.
