Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary change of neuromuscular stiffness of the gastrocnemious muscles biomechanical property of a muscle that characterizes the resistance to an external force that deforms its initial shape, using a "Myoton". 10 minutes before the intervention, and 1 minute after the intervention
Primary change of elasticity of the gastrocnemious muscles Biomechanical property of a muscle that characterizes the ability to recover its initial shape after the removal of the external force that lead to its deformation, using a "Myoton". 10 minutes before the intervention, and 1 minute after the intervention
Primary change of relaxation of the gastrocnemious muscles Time for a muscle to recover its shape from deformation after the removal of an external force, using a "Myoton". 10 minutes before the intervention, and 1 minute after the intervention
Secondary change of active dorsiflexion ROM Active range of movement of the dorsiflexion of the ankle, using an inclinometer (degrees). 4 minutes before the intervention, and 6 minute after the intervention
Secondary change of pasive dorsiflexion ROM Pasive range of movement of the dorsiflexion of the ankle, using an inclinometer (degrees). 2 minutes before the intervention, and 8 minute after the intervention
Secondary change of gastrocnemious strength Isometric strength of the gastrocnemious muscles using a handheld dynamometer "microFET 2" (newtons). 5 minutes before the intervention, and 5 minute after the intervention
Secondary change of pain intensity How much pressure needs to be applied to cause pain 8 minutes before the intervention, and 2 minute after the intervention
Secondary change of pressure-pain threshold How much pain the pacient reports while a pressure of 1kg/cm²/s is being applied over his gastrocnemious muscle 7 minutes before the intervention, and 3 minute after the intervention
