ABSTRACT

The Low-Dye tape is considered the gold standard among the tape techniques for the control of the fall of the longitudinal arch of the foot according to the literature. This tape technique has attracted the attention of numerous studies in recent years, in which its mechanical and clinical effects have been evaluated.
Kinetically, the collected clinical trials coincide in the generation of a decrease in plantar pressures in the medial region of the forefoot and its aument in the lateral midfoot region. Kinematically, the study of the internal longitudinal arch has focused the attention of a greater number of authors, due to the anatomical location of the Low-Dye tape. The main kinematic effect produced by the placement of the Low-Dye tape consists in a decrease in the fall of the internal longitudinal arch. Finally, at a clinical level, the improvement of pain in patients with plantar fasciitis is highlighted by the use of the Low-Dye tape.
In conclusion, the kinetic and kinematic effects observed would be related to a decrease in the net moment of pronation force that supports the foot as well as the net moment of dorsal flexion that support the joints of the internal column and could favor the establishment of the Windlass mechanism. By favoring the mechanism of Windlass, tensile stress that support various structures, such as the plantar fascia, decreases, improving pain related to this pathology according to the literature. Despite this, it is necessary to carry out more trials to evaluate the effects of this bandage.



RESUMEN

El vendaje Low-Dye se considera el gold estándar entre las técnicas de vendaje para el control de la caída del arco longitudinal del pie, según la literatura. Dicha técnica de vendaje ha recogido la atención de numerosos estudios en los últimos años, en los cuales se ha evaluado sus efectos mecánicos y clínicos.
Cinéticamente, los ensayos clínicos recogidos coinciden en que genera una disminución de las presiones plantares en la región medial del antepié y su aumento en la región lateral del mediopié. Cinemáticamente, el estudio del arco longitudinal interno ha centrado la atención de un mayor número de autores, debido a la localización anatómica del vendaje Low-Dye. El principal efecto cinemático producto de la colocación del vendaje Low-Dye consiste en una disminución en la caída del arco longitudinal interno. Finalmente, a nivel clínico destaca la mejoría del dolor en pacientes con fascitis plantar mediante el uso del vendaje Low-Dye.
En conclusión, los efectos cinéticos y cinemáticos observados guardarían relación con una disminución del momento de fuerza pronador neto que soporta el pie, así como el momento de flexión dorsal neto que soportan las articulaciones de la columna interna y podría favorecer la instauración del mecanismo de Windlass. Al favorecerse el mecanismo de Windlass, el estrés tensil que soportan diversas estructuras, como la fascia plantar, disminuye, mejorando así el dolor relacionado con esta patología según la bibliografía. Pese a ello es necesario la realización de más ensayos que evalúen los efectos de este vendaje.
