The Effect of Visual Input in Athletes With Chronic Ankle Instability

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of neuromuscular training on balance by using stroboscopic glasses in athletes with chronic ankle instability.

Clinical Trial Description

Lateral ankle sprain (LAB) is one of the most common musculoskeletal injuries of 15% of all injuries reported in all sports.Chronic ankle instability (CAI) is characterized by life-long persistent symptoms in 40% of people with recurrent LAB sprain.

It has been reported that there is a change in sensorimotor function in the activity of individuals with CAI, and they are more dependent on visual information in balance parameters on one leg.While the somatosensory input was clinically feasible; The obstruction of the visual input has been limited in two ways, the eyes being fully open or fully enclosed.However, this changing dynamic has provided a means for the prevention of visual input during more sporty maneuvers, to directly reach compensatory neuroplastic sequelae after injury and to function in a functional way to train the neuromuscular system.This technological innovation makes this possible by reducing the visual input without completely eliminating it.This innovation, called stroboscopic goggles technology, provides a mechanism to disrupt to any degree between eyes closed and open in the visual system.

Stroboscopic vision, characterized by intermittent vision obstruction, can be a clinical tool that allows clinicians to study sensory feedback in a progressive manner without fully seeing visual information. So use stroboscopic goggles to prevent visual information, you can improve the functionality by emphasizing the somatosensor information.In particular, visual manipulations can significantly influence the healthy adult electrocortical dynamics and balance control by triggering the contradiction between visual adult, vestibular and proprioceptive inputs.

The aim of this study, which was planned for this purpose, will be to evaluate the effects of neuromuscular exercises performed on stroboscopic environment on equilibrium, neural feedback and running mechanics. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
