摘　　要：Objective:To discuss the clinical effect of kinesio taping on shoulder pain after stroke. Methods: A total of 60 patients with shoulder pain after stroke in our hospital between July 2016 and March 2018 were divided into the treatment group and the control group according to the SPSS random method, 30 in each group. The treatment group was treated with kinesio taping and combined comprehensive rehabilitation therapy, while the control group received simple comprehensive rehabilitation therapy for 4 weeks. The visual analogue scale (VAS), simplified Fugl-Meyer motor function score (FMA) and range of motion (ROM) were used to evaluate the pain degree, upper limb function and shoulder joint activity of the patients before and 2 and 4 weeks after treatment.Results: There was no difference in VAS score between the two groups before treatment (P>0.05),and the VAS score of the treatment group were significantly lower than those of the control group after 2 weeks and 4 weeks (P<0.05).There was no difference in FMA score between the two groups before treatment (P>0.05), and the FMA scores of the treatment group were significantly higher than that of the control group after 2 weeks and 4 weeks (P<0.05).There was no difference in the shoulder flexion, extension, abduction, internal rotation and external rotation of the two groups before treatment (P>0.05), and the shoulder flexion, extension, abduction, internal rotation and external rotation of the patients in the treatment group were significantly greater than those in the control group after 2 and 4 weeks of treatment (P<0.05).Conclusion:Kinesio taping combined with rehabilitation therapy can alleviate the pain and improve the upper limb function and shoulder motion function after stoke. It worth of clinical use.
