Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Methods: This randomised study included 21 female patients (mean age of 53.81±6.20 years) with bilateral grade 2 knee OA according to the Kellgren \& Lawrence Classification. Pain was evaluated with the visual analog scale, functionality was evaluated with the Western Ontario McMaster Osteoarthritis Index, and the kinetic, kinematic, and spatiotemporal parameters were evaluated using a three-dimensional gait analysis system at baseline (no application) and immediately after the application of elastic taping, rigid taping, and orthoses. The dependent variables were measured after 45 minute the application of four different conditions neutral, elastic taping, rigid taping, and knee brace on each participant with 1-day intervals.

Effetcs of Taping type and Orthosis on Pain,
The order of the elastic taping, rigid taping, and braces was randomized using a computer-generated random sequence created before the research (Random.org). Both knees of each participant were taped and braced. The participants were allowed to become accustomed to the applied elastic taping, rigid taping, and braces before the gait analysis and evaluations. All the taping techniques and braces were similar for all the participants. The participants performed four evaluation condition trials at baseline and with the elastic taping, rigid taping, and braces after 45 minutes.

Effetcs of Taping type and Orthosis on Gait and functionality
The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Turkish Version 3.1 (WOMAC) index is a self-administered questionnaire that assesses three aspects of a patient's health status -pain, stiffness, and physical function - in those with lower limb Osteoarthritis.
Gait analysis was conducted using a 3-dimensional VICON gait analysis system (Workstation Version 4.0, Oxford, UK). Each participant was assessed four times before and after the applications.
