Achilles Tendon Rupture Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Acute Effect Comparisons of Manual Therapy Application to Ankle Soft Tissues or To Ankle Joint on Ankle Motion, Functional Status, and Passive Mechanical Properties of Muscle in Individuals Who Had Achilles Tendon Repair
Achilles tendon rupture is common among physically active individuals. Limitations, decreases in the level of standing on heel rise, and due to these limitations, failures in functional activities such as returning to sports, walking, running, jumping and performance tests are observed. Manual therapy methods included in rehabilitation programs are an effective option in solving these problems. The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of Compressive Myofascial Release and Ankle joint mobilization on ankle joint movement, functional tests, elasticity and stiffness of the muscle-tendon complex and muscle tone parameters in individuals who underwent Achilles tendon repair.
Achilles tendon rupture is common among physically active individuals. It has been reported that 73% of all Achilles tendon ruptures are sports-related and injuries frequently occur between the ages of 30-49. Conservative or surgical treatments can be applied after Achilles tendon ruptures. After Achilles tendon injuries and repair, decreases in Soleus muscle strength and endurance, changes in lower extremity muscle activation levels, decreases in Gastro-Soleus muscle circumference, increase in Achilles tendon thickness and stiffness, decreases in elasticity, elongations in the Achilles tendon, ankle dorsiflexion range of motion. Limitations, decreases in the level of standing on heel rise, and due to these limitations, failures in functional activities such as returning to sports, walking, running, jumping and performance tests are observed. Manual therapy methods included in rehabilitation programs are an effective option in solving these problems. The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of Compressive Myofascial Release and Ankle joint mobilization on ankle joint movement, functional tests, elasticity and stiffness of the muscle-tendon complex and muscle tone parameters in individuals who underwent Achilles tendon repair. Compressive myofascial release will be applied to a group that has undergone Achilles tendon repair surgery, and ankle mobilization will be applied to another group. Muscle-tendon passive mechanical properties will be evaluated with Myoton-3 before and after the applications. Toe elevation level, ankle joint range of motion and Achilles tendon rest angle will be evaluated before and after the application. ;
