Official Title: The Effects of K-Tape on Walking Pattern, Muscle Activity, and Motor Performance in Children With and Without Developmental Coordination Disorder: a Randomized Controlled Trial
Brief Summary: To investigate the effects of K Tape on walking pattern, muscle activity and motor performance in children with and without developmental coordination disorder (DCD).
Detailed Summary:
Sponsor: The University of Hong Kong
Current Primary Outcome: Change in lower limb muscle activation as measured by electromyography [ Time Frame: Day 1 and day 2 (ms) ]
Original Primary Outcome: Same as current
Current Secondary Outcome:
- Change in balance performance as measured by force plate [ Time Frame: Day 1 and day 2 ]Post K Tape balance performance - pre K Tape balance performance
- Foot posture as assessed by clinical observation [ Time Frame: Day 1 and Day 2 ]
- Body composition as assessed by DXA [ Time Frame: Day 1 and Day 2 ]
- Change in walking pattern as assessed by a motion analysis system [ Time Frame: Day 1 and day 2 ]Post K Tape walking pattern - pre K Tape walking pattern
Original Secondary Outcome: Same as current
