Filter by:Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool (CAIT) is a valid patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) to determine the presence of ankle instability (AI) and assess its severity. The aim of current study is to adapt the CAIT into the Turkish language, test its psychometric properties and determine cut-off score in the Turkish population with AI compare to healthy counterparts. In order to evaluate the Turkish version of CAIT (CAIT-TR), data will obtaine from 200-250 participants with and without AI. Test-retest reliability, internal consistency, cut-off score, and ceiling and floor effects will evaluate.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effect of Wii Fit rehabilitation on risk of fall, balance, and functional limitation, in patients with chronic ankle instability ,The main question it aims to answer is: Are there any effect of Wii Fit rehabilitation training on balance, functional limitation, and risk of falls in patients with chronic ankle instability? Participants will be asked to sign a written informed consent form before the study according to guidelines of ethical committee The first group control group: 30 patients will receive conventional physical therapy training only which consist of strengthening, proprioceptive exercises. The second group experimental group: 30 patients Wii Fit group will receive Wii Fit rehabilitation training and the same conventional exercise training.
Every individual with joint hypermobility may not apply to a health institution because they do not have a complaint that will affect their daily life. Although hypermobility is a common clinical entity in the society, this issue has not been fully understood yet. In particular, individuals with GJH are either neglected in physiotherapy and rehabilitation evaluations and practices, or they encounter an incomplete assessment and physiotherapy practices. In this study, in order to better understand the effect of GJH on "core" muscle endurance, upper extremity strength, grip strength and coordination, we will include the individuals identified GJH among the university students (hypermobility severity ≥4/9 according to Beighton diagnostic criteria) as study group and the healthy peers as control group. We believe the results we will obtain at the end of our study will make a contribution to the literature in terms of revealing the role of "core" muscle endurance and upper extremity strength, grip strength and coordination in the evaluation and rehabilitation of individuals with GJH. In addition, it will contribute to the inclusion of individuals with GJH who are professional athletes, dancers or musicians in a more comprehensive evaluation program and the creation of physiotherapy and rehabilitation programs. According to the information we have obtained from the literature, it is a fact that hypermobility can increase the susceptibility to musculoskeletal system diseases. For this reason, early solutions to problems can be provided by evaluating hypermobility in patients who apply to health institutions with various musculoskeletal complaints, raising awareness of patients with hypermobility to prevent injuries caused by hypermobility, and strengthening muscles.
A joint is considered "hypermobile" when it has a greater range of motion than normal for a given age, ethnicity or gender. Many people have asymptomatic hyperlaxity in multiple joints, a condition called Generalized Joint Hypermobility (GJH). Conversely, hyperlaxity can be symptomatic, a condition that has been defined "Joint Hypermobility Syndrome" - JHS. Diagnosis of JHS is commonly performed by applying the revised Brighton criteria. Based on these criteria, an individual is diagnosed with JHS with a Beighton score >/= 4/9, and arthralgia for 3 or more months in 4 or more joints (major criteria). The dynamic body balance test (i.e. the stability test with multiple single-leg jumps) can provide information regarding the effectiveness of the feedforward and feedback mechanisms in correcting the postural deviations necessary to achieve successful performance during daily and sporting activities. Such assessment may also be useful to demonstrate deficiencies in balance, especially in young patients with increased physical activity. The aim of this study is to examine the postural balance of individuals with JHS by performing stability tests in monopodalic and bipodalic stance with the "Delos Postural Proprioceptive System"
Analysis of patellar positioning in the trochlear groove after TKA with and without the use of dynamic tensioner.
The objective of the study is to evaluate post-operatively the postural control through the Delos system with the Riva method of patients already treated surgically of external capsulo-ligament reconstruction due to ankle instability.
A Prospective, Multi-Center, Single-Arm Clinical Trial of the safety and effectiveness of the Aptis PRUJ prosthesis for the treatment of patients with proximal radial ulna joint disorders
Purpose: The primary aim of this study was to investigate subjects with chronic ankle instability regarding strength, balance and functional performance with an easily used test battery that required minimal equipment. A second aim was to evaluate which of these tests that has the highest ability to discriminate impaired function between injured and non-injured ankle in CAI subjects. Methods: This study was conducted with a cross-sectional design. A total of 20 (11 women) CAI subjects, engaged in sports, were tested for assessment of strength, balance and functional performance using the following tests; isometric strength in inversion and eversion, the single leg stance test (SLS), single leg hop for distance (SLHD) and side hop test. Additionally, 15 healthy subjects were tested with the same test battery for the evaluation of
this clinical trial intended to investigate the effect of applying kinesiotaping to an ankle with mild instability in the recreational runners. the authors hypothesize that kinesiotaping might improve postural stability in those patients and facilitate returning to activity
The goal of this study is to investigate if a Wrist Stabilizing Exercise Programme, WSE, compared to Conventional Intervention use of orthosis in daily activities, HO in persons with Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders, HSD or hypermobility Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, hEDS, in order to reduce pain and or paraesthesia in the hand. Participants are persons with HSD and hEDS with symptoms of persistent or intermittent pain and or paraesthesia in the hands for the past three years. The main question aims to answer - if the WSE has effect on occupational performance and health related quality of life - if the WSE has effect on handfunction and handstrength The intervention WSE aimed to improve wrist stabilization and increased grip strength according to a training program. Researchers will compare WSE and HO to see if there were changes between and within the intervention group, WSE and Convention group.
