Filter by:The purpose of this study is to check reliability and validity, of translated Urdu version of the Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool develop and test its psychometric properties and responsiveness in Urdu speaking population in Pakistan endure with Ankle sprain and ankle instability complaints.
The goal of this prospective, open label study is the construction and the evaluation of a composite score evaluating the residual instability in patients who have undergone an ankle's ligamentoplasty (the Ankle Go Test score). The main hypothesis of this study is based on the fact that the composite score "Ankle Go Test" would allow a global validation of all the criteria of scores of 4 tests and 2 questionnaires, which are performed in common pratice, evaluating the instability of the ankle after an ankle ligamentoplasty. Participants will have to complete 2 questionnaires (FAAM, ALR RS) and to undergoe 4 tests (Single Leg Stance Test, Side Hop Test, Start Excursion Balance Test, La figure of 8), at 4, 6 and 12 months post surgery. Researchers will compare the group of participants who undergone ankle's ligamentoplasty with a group of healthy volunteers to assess the discriminant validity of the Ankle Go Test score
The specific aims of this study are to: - describe how many heel raises and side hops TG athletes of various ages can perform and how far they can jump, one leg at a time. - examine how calf muscle endurance and hop performance are related to the risk of new injuries in the foot, ankle, and lower leg in TG athletes. The investigators hypothesise that atletes with superior performance in the tests for muscular endurance and hop performance will report fewer injuries during the follow up period.
Investigators designed this randomized controlled trial to compare the clinical outcomes of open and arthroscopic modified Broström operation for the treatment of CLAI and GJL.
Soft Tissue Adapted Biocompatible Hyaluronic Acid, or STABHA™, has demonstrated varying degrees efficacy in patients treated for common musculoskeletal tendinopathies and ligament injuries, such as ankle sprains, lateral elbow tendinopathy, and rotator cuff tendinopathies. Factors associated with prognosis following treatment remain largely unknown. Identifying appropriate patient populations for use of STABHA™ is a necessary first step to facilitate the design of future clinical trials in the management of acute and chronic musculoskeletal soft-tissue injuries.
This randomized controlled trial will compare the mid- and long-term effects of group-based training programs with usual individual physiotherapy care for the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders in military. One hundred and twenty soldiers presenting one of the four targeted musculoskeletal disorders (low back pain, rotator cuff related pain, patellofemoral pain syndrome or lateral ankle sprain) will be recruited and randomly assigned to either a 12-weeks group-based training program or 12-weeks usual individual physiotherapy care.
Investigators designed this prospective cohort study to compare the clinical outcomes of modified Broström operation and anatomical reconstruction for the treatment of CLAI and GJL.
Ambispective, multi-surgeon, single site, consecutive case series to determine the safety, performance, and benefits of the Grappler(R) Interference Screw.
Approximately 40% of acute ankle sprain would develop into chronic ankle instability (CAI). Chronic ankle instability is characterized by pain, repeated sprains and giving way. Recently, the pathomechanical impairment, sensory-perceptual impairment and motor-behavioral impairment have been documented in the chronic ankle instability model. Previous research revealed that compared to the control subjects, people with CAI had lower pressure pain threshold (PPT). This increased mechanosensitivity of the neural tissues around the ankle might account for pain and dysfunction in people with CAI. Also, the other study indicated that in subjects following ankle inversion sprain there is greater restriction of knee extension on the injured side compared to non-injured side in the slump test with the ankle plantar flexion and inversion, which may suggest the restriction in mobility of the common peroneal tract. However, the effects of neurodynamic intervention, which addresses the mechanosensitivity problems, in people with CAI are still unclear. Therefore, the aim of the study is to investigate the effect of additional neurodynamic intervention on the ankle range of motion, mechanosensitivity, balance performance and self-reported function.
The study consists in recruiting patients with ankle sprains who visit the emergency department (ED). Each patient will be tested by an osteopath who we will measure pain, swelling and/or edema, and mobility of the ankle. Patients will be asked to reproduce exercises such as to hold on one foot, to stand on tiptoes... Then, patients will be divided into two groups. The first group will undergo medical treatment during the ED visit, while the second group will undergo osteopathic treatment. Three time points will be planned. The first one will be the patient's consultation in the ED where treatment will be carried out according to its assignment, as well as the clinical measures previously described. The second time point will be seven days later (plus or minus three days), where only clinical measurements will be performed. The third time point will be three weeks later (plus or minus three days), when the ankle sprain has consolidated, in order to carry out the clinical measurements again. These clinical measurements will allow to evaluate the effectiveness of a single osteopathic consultation in the ED. The investigators expect a reduction in immediate pain, and thereafter, a reduction in swelling, and an improved mobility and stability of the ankle.
