Muscle Weakness Clinical Trial
Official title:
Restoration of Muscle Function During Rehabilitation
Patients who are forced to rest or reduce activity as a result of illness, injury, or surgery often experience resulting muscle weakness. This study will evaluate muscle features and muscle strength in patients who are recovering from surgery for broken ankles. The goal of this study is to improve the recovery of muscle function and overall ability after prolonged periods of ankle inactivity due to surgery.
