  • Title: [Proprioceptive capacities of the healthy knee joint: modification by an elastic bandage].
    Author: Jerosch J, Prymka M.
    Journal: Sportverletz Sportschaden; 1995 Sep; 9(3):72-6. PubMed ID: 7502216.
    Abstract:
    In 30 healthy volunteers with clinical inconspicuous knee joints, the proprioception of the knee joint was evaluated. The proprioceptive capability of the subjects was tested by an angle reproduction test. Additionally all knee joints were measured with and without an elastic knee bandage. The study showed no difference, neither between the left and the right knee joint, nor between men and women. However, at the mid-range of knee joint motion a significant deterioration of the proprioception could be documented. Applying an elastic knee bandage resulted in a significant improvement of the results.
