Clinical Trial Summary

ATFL thickness increases on the affected side of stroke patients and the homogeneous fibrillar structure is deteriorated.We aim to compare morphology of ATFL and Achilles tendon on the affected and unaffected sides using ultrasound in hemiplegic patients.


Clinical Trial Description

Age, gender, BMI, time elapsed after the event (months), Brunstrom motor stages and Barthel Activities of Daily Living index of the patients will be recorded. Modified Ashworth Scale and Tardieu scale are used to determine the muscle tone in the gastrocnemius, soleus and tibialis posterior of the hemiplegic side. ATFL and Achilles tendon will be evaluated using a 12 MHz linear probe of the Toshibo Aplio 500 USG device.ATFL and Achilles tendon signal will be evaluated with reference to contralateral features. ATFL will be evaluated while the patient lying in the supine position with knee flexion and ankle slight plantarflexion and inversion.The probe will be placed anterolaterally between the lateral malleolus and the talus and a longitudinal image of the ATFL is obtained. Achilles tendon will be evaluated with the patient lying in the prone position and the ankle at 90 degrees neutral. ATFL and Achilles tendon signal will be evaluated and noted as homogeneous normal fibrillary structure or heterogeneous.All ultrasound measurements will be performed twice with the patients in the same position. ;
