Abstract The purpose of this study was to examine the effects a single joint mobilization treatment on dorsiflexion range motion (DF ROM), posterior talar glide, and dynamic static postural control in individuals with self‐reported chronic ankle instability (CAI). In randomized cross‐over study, subjects received Maitland Grade III anterior‐to‐posterior rest for 5 min. Weight‐bearing DF ROM, instrumented displacement stiffness, anterior, posteromedial, posterolateral reach directions Star...
Context: Individuals with chronic ankle instability (CAI) have reported decreased global and regional function. Despite the identification of functional deficits in those CAI, more research is required to determine extent which CAI influences multidimensional profile health-related quality life. Objective: To whether global, regional, psychological outcomes differ between individuals without CAI. Design: Case-control study. Setting: Laboratory. Patients or Other Participants: Twenty-five...
Abstract We examined the effect of a 2‐week anterior‐to‐posterior ankle joint mobilization intervention on weight‐bearing dorsiflexion range motion (ROM), dynamic balance, and self‐reported function in subjects with chronic instability (CAI). In this prospective cohort study, received six Maitland Grade III treatments over 2 weeks. Weight‐bearing ROM, anterior, posteromedial, posterolateral reach directions Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT), Foot Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM) were assessed 1...
People with chronic ankle instability (CAI) exhibit less weight-bearing dorsiflexion range of motion (ROM) and knee flexion during landing than people stable ankles. Examining the relationship between ROM biomechanics may identify a modifiable factor associated altered kinematics kinetics tasks.To examine single-legged in persons CAI.Cross-sectional study.Laboratory.Fifteen physically active CAI (5 men, 10 women; age = 21.9 ± 2.1 years, height 168.7 9.0 cm, mass 69.4 13.3 kg)...
Objective: To determine if plantar cutaneous sensation and postural control differ between individuals with without chronic ankle instability (CAI). Design: Case–control. Setting: Laboratory. Participants: Ten subjects CAI 10 no sprain history participated. Interventions: Light touch was evaluated at 3 sites (heel, base of fifth metatarsal, head first metatarsal) on the aspect foot using Semmes–Weinstein Monofilaments (SWMs). Postural assessed single leg firm foam conditions Balance Error...
Objective : Sports-related concussions (SRCs) are commonly occurring injuries among athletic and recreationally active populations. SRCs can result in vestibular dysfunction that should resolve before returning to activity. It has been suggested impairment is a factor may influence recovery time. The objective of this study was evaluate the effect function on following SRC. Design Retrospective chart review. Setting Multidisciplinary Concussion Clinic. Intervention A total 32 patient charts...
Persistent pain is a common complaint among civilians and military personnel after lateral ankle sprain (LAS). Most individuals who experience an LAS self-report moderate intensity level that interferes with activity. This mostly described through study designs outcomes limit the understanding of acute to chronic transition LAS. The purpose this prospective quantify prevalence rate at 6-months post-injury identify susceptibility resiliency factors contribute chronification objective will be...
Purpose The purpose of this study was to investigate the vibrotactile detection thresholds plantar cutaneous afferents in subjects with chronic ankle instability compared healthy control subjects. Methods Eight adults and eight no sprain history participated. Vibrotactile were assessed using a mechanical stimulus generator system, mounted onto an articulated microscope arm, which delivered sinusoidal inputs foot sole at three different sites: head first metatarsal, base fifth heel....
Objectives: Examine the association between concussion and lower extremity injury in collegiate athletes influence of sex number concussions on this relationship.Methods: A total 468 student-athletes (200 Males, 268 Females) were recruited from athletic facilities three universities to participate retrospective review. Participants provided history (concussions, ankle sprains, knee injuries) information through a survey. Chi-square tests odds ratios examined relationship sprain or within...
Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) is a broad term for the impact injury or illness on physical, psychological, and social health dimensions. Injury has been associated with decreased HRQOL in athletes. However, influence history, participation status, time since last injury, severity remains unclear.To compare collegiate athletes based to examine relationships between outcomes.Cross-sectional.3 National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) institutions.467 (199 males, 268 females;...
A single talocrural joint-mobilization treatment has improved spatiotemporal measures of postural control but not ankle arthrokinematics in individuals with chronic instability (CAI). However, the effects multiple sessions on these aspects function have been investigated.To examine effect a 2-wk anterior-to-posterior intervention instrumented single-limb-stance static and adults CAI.Repeated measures.Research laboratory.12 CAI (6 male, 6 female; age 27.4 ± 4.3 y, height 175.4 9.78 cm, mass...
