Filter by:infantry recruits will be examined - for the musculoskeletal system status (tendon, muscle, proprioception, agility, joints) Following, intervention program of exercises will be conducted. Another evaluation will be performed at the end of the intervention.
To determine the effects of motor imagery techniques on pain, proprioception, instability and strength in acute lateral ankle sprains in soccer players
Ankle sprain is one of the most common pathologies in the general population (between 2.1 and 3.2 per 1000 patients per year). Nearly 40% of patients will develop chronic instability in the year following the sprain. We also know that a premature return to sport is a risk factor for developing chronic instability. However, despite the consensus of experts on the subject which have shown the key physiological elements to evaluate before resuming sport, no test or cohort of tests are proposed to allow a safe return to sport by reducing the risks of relapse. Some very recent studies have appeared on non-operated subjects but this remains a subject that is still too little studied, where the lack of consensus and objective criteria increases the risk of instability. Surgical treatment remains an effective option to reduce the risk of recurrence but failure of the latter can occur in approximately 13-37% of patients depending on the population, due to a relapse or a return to sport which does not correspond to expectations. of the patient. The objective of the study is therefore to evaluate the predictive nature of a composite test (ANKLE-GO) regarding the return to sport at the same level and the risks of recurrence.
This study will determine the relationship of one's self-reported awareness of their body and their ankle motor control for people with chronic ankle instability. This study will further identify the correlates between certain psychological characteristics (i.e., fear and anxiety) and autonomic nervous system arousal (i.e., heart rate variability). Furthermore, this study will elucidate the potential impact of a brief hypnosis practice on balance performance.
In this study, the effects of different treatment methods for ankle instability patients are being compared aiming to find the optimal treatment. Via comparing virtual reality, motor imagery, and classic rehabilitation programs to clarify their effects on ankle static and dynamic balance, proprioception, range of motion, muscle strength, pain, function and patient satisfaction.
To examine the acute effect of percussive therapy on peak calf muscle activation during standing heel raise in subjects with and without chronic ankle instability (CAI).
Ankle fracture is one of the most common orthopedic injuries. Approximately, 20% of surgically treated ankle fractures are associated with syndesmotic instability.According to the mechanism of the injury the syndesmotic disruption should be considered in Danis-Weber C-type fractures. However, such injuries were also frequently seen in Danis-Weber B-type fractures. Failure to detect and repair syndesmotic injuries early may result in poor clinical outcomes and complications affecting ankle function, such as long-term residual pain, post traumatic arthritis, and ankle impingement syndromes. Therefore, aggressive treatment is important when facing syndesmotic instability . The distal tibiofibular syndesmosis is important for stability of the ankle mortise and thus for weight transmission and walking. Syndesmotic injuries are most commonly associated with fibular fractures, but they can also occur in isolation or with damage to the lateral ankle ligament after traumatic supination. The need for syndesmotic fixation of the distal tibiofibular joint has been controversia. fracture does not correlate reliably with the extent of the interosseous membrane tears identified on MRI of ankle fractures, and thus estimation of the integrity of the interosseous membrane and subsequent need for trans-syndesmotic fixation cannot be based solely on the level of the fibular fracture. An intraoperative syndesmotic stress test can establish the presence or absence of syndesmotic instability, evaluating the integrity of the syndesmosis by grasping the stabilised fibula with a hook or clamp and pulling it laterally. If more than 3 or 4 mm of lateral displacement occurs, syndesmotic fixation is necessary. Most authors recommend surgical placement of a trans-fixation screw after anatomical reduction of the syndesmosis if a disruption is diagnosed to avoid complications.The main aims of treatment for dislocation of the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis are to restore the original anatomy and normal function and to recreate the stability of the ankle joint. The syndesmosis is traditionally fixed with a metallic screw, which is a method that has been used for decades and demonstrates good to excellent outcomes. Some surgeons prefer Fixation of syndesmosis with screw in maximum ankle dorsiflexion and others prefer fixation in neutral position of ankle.in this study we are going to compare between these two
Effect of Perineural Dexmedetomidine vs. Dexamethasone on the duration of popliteal nerve block for Anesthesia After Pediatric ankle/foot surgery.
The study aims to compare the effects of neuromuscular training and mobilization with movement on pain, range of motion, function, and disability in professional athletes with ankle sprain. Neuromuscular training focuses on improving neuromuscular control and stability, while mobilization with movement aims to restore joint mobility and function. By investigating the outcomes of these two interventions, the study seeks to provide insights into their effectiveness for managing ankle sprains in professional athletes.
Decreased ankle dorsiflexion range of motion (DFROM) has been identified among the factors that increase the risk of lateral ankle sprain (LAS) in basketball players. Restoring the DFROM is important in restoring reduced functional abilities and reducing the risk of re-injury. There is evidence that talocrural joint mobilization improves DFROM, but studies investigating the effectiveness of different mobilization techniques are needed. Our study aims to investigate the effects of single-session Mulligan and Maitland talocrural joint mobilization methods on dorsiflexion joint range of motion, jumping performance, and kinesiophobia in elite basketball players.
