Abstract
The effectiveness of taping in the prevention of sports injuries has only been studied in detail with regard to the lateral ligaments of the ankle. It appears that taping can protect against injury. The mechanism by which taping works is not certain, but mechanical factors play a role which dedreases with exercise. The major effect of taping may be its proprioceptive effect on underlying muscle groups. Verf.-Referat
