Warning You have reached the maximum number of saved studies Comparison of Two Manual Therapy Techniques on Ankle Dorsiflexion The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been evaluated by the U. Federal Government. Read our disclaimer for details. Last Update Posted : March 18, Study Description. Ankle rigidity is a common musculoskeletal disorder affecting the talocrural joint, which can impair weight-bearing ankle dorsiflexion WBADF.
Detailed Description:. Arms and Interventions. Outcome Measures. Primary Outcome Measures : Electromechanical device measurement of MAS Lehmann device, [ Time Frame: Change from baseline until discharge of treatment same day, single session ] The electromechanical device used to quantify musculoarticular stiffness had been used in previous research studies and has ben shown to have high precision, reliability and accuracy. Eligibility Criteria. Information from the National Library of Medicine Choosing to participate in a study is an important personal decision.
Inclusion Criteria: male gender, aged between 18 to 40 years, with a chronic unilateral mobility deficit of the talocrural joint; i. Subjects were recruited with chronic unilateral mobility deficit of the talocrural joint, which could be following a previous history of ankle injury or without previous history of ankle injury. Exclusion Criteria: a history of ankle joint surgery or injury to the foot, ankle, knee or hip in the previous one-year.

Abstract Context: Clinicians perform therapeutic interventions, such as stretching, manual therapy, electrotherapy, ultrasound, and exercises, to increase ankle dorsiflexion. Objective: To determine the magnitude of therapeutic intervention effects on and the most effective therapeutic interventions for restoring normal ankle dorsiflexion after ankle sprain.
Study Selection: Eligible studies had to be written in English and include the means and standard deviations of both pretreatment and posttreatment in patients with acute, subacute, or chronic ankle sprains.
Conclusions: Static-stretching intervention as a part of standardized care yielded the strongest effects on dorsiflexion after acute ankle sprains. Key Words: chronic ankle instability, range of motion, stretching, joint mobilization. Key Points. Open in a separate window. Figure 1. Selection Criteria We identified research articles in which authors evaluated various therapeutic intervention techniques. We examined the full text of studies identified through the electronic searches and the cross-referenced bibliographies of these studies to determine whether they met the following inclusion criteria Figure 1 : The authors included participants only with acute, subacute, or recurrent ankle sprains.
Data Extraction The primary author extracted the relevant information in the selected studies. Methodologic Quality After the research articles were identified for inclusion in the review, we applied the Physiotherapy Evidence Database PEDro scale 37 , 38 to rate their quality. Data Synthesis To be combined for data analysis, we categorized the included studies into 2 primary groupings of evidence based on onset of injury.
Table 1 Article Content Summary. Placebo: sham mobilization; 2. Rest, ice, compression, and elevation for 20 min; 2. The joint mobilization group achieved full, pain-free dorsiflexion with fewer sessions. Treatments were provided once a day with 5 sessions per wk. Table 2 Methodologic Quality of the Included Studies. Abbreviation: NA indicates not applicable. Manual Therapy Two included studies 30 , 31 in which the investigators evaluated MWM and Maitland passive oscillatory joint mobilization after acute or subacute ankle sprain were categorized into this group Table 3 , Figure 2.
Figure 2. Therapeutic Modalities In 3 of the 7 studies, investigators examined the effectiveness of therapeutic modalities, specifically HVPS plus conventional treatment, 32 hyperbaric oxygen, 33 and biomechanical muscle stimulation BMS 36 after an acute ankle sprain on dorsiflexion.
Figure 3. Therapeutic Exercises Only 1 study was categorized into this group. Figure 4. Psychological Intervention This category included only 1 study. Figure 5.

In order to improve ankle dorsiflexion in the closed chain the patient maintains the stride-stance position described in Figure 5a- b. This hand directs a force to the dorsal and distal tibial malleolus in a ventral direction as is indicated by the arrow above. With this hand the therapist simultaneously generates a spin force to the tibia into an externally rotated position.
