This book was released on 2018 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ability to move is an important component for quality of life. Injury can hamper this component reducing the quality of life. The time needed to recover from injury can have economic, psychological, and emotional impacts. Therefore it is important to determine ways to prevent injuries whenever possible. One common injury occurring to many active people is an inversion ankle sprain. Unfortunately after such an injury the likelihood it may occur again increases due to the decreased ankle stability. To help prevent ankle sprains, individuals can wear external ankle supports such as ankle tape or ankle braces. The latter of the two is reusable, does not degrade with activity, and reduces the risk of ankle injuries. However, with the reduction of the ankle’s range of motion there may be an alteration in the kinetic chain dynamics of the lower extremities, which may have consequences including risk of injury at other joints, including the knee and hip. Females have a four to six fold incidence rate of ACL injuries when compared to men. Additionally 60% of ACL injuries occur during noncontact situations. This study was designed to examine whether the kinetics of the knee and hip, and the angular kinematics of the knee are affected in a female population when wearing an ankle brace during a sidestep cutting maneuver. Sixteen healthy and recreationally active females between the ages of 18-40 performed a number of dynamic movement tasks using of their preferred leg. A total of 24 experimental trials were completed over two sessions (12 in session one and 12 in session two) with half of each sessions trials being straight run throughs and the other half being sidestep cutting maneuvers. Half of the participants wore a brace during their first session (no brace for their second) and the other half did not wear a brace during their first session (brace for their second). The results showed no difference in almost all dependent variables except for knee varus moment between sessions one and two with a p-value less than 0.05. These findings suggest a learning effect occurred and the participants altered their valgus moments without altering knee angular kinematics. Wearing an ankle brace did not increase the injury risk factors for the knee in this task.

Download or read book Effects of External Ankle Taping on Lower Extremity Kinetics and Kinematics in Young Adult Males written by Chandler Dominique Moore and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Context: External stabilizing devices serve to limit the range of motion of the involved joint. As the most common injury in collegiate athletes, ankle injuries are frequently supported by external devices such as external ankle tape. Changes in biomechanical values at the ankle may result in changes up the kinetic chain. By using external ankle tape, clinicians may be increasing the risk of pathology in the athletic population. However, no research exits to support this theory. Objective: To compare the effect of external ankle taping on knee and hip kinematics and kinetics compared to no taping during an anticipated sidestep cutting task and a straight sprint task. Study Design: Cross-over study. Setting: Laboratory. Participants: 16 healthy males (Age: 23.1±2.6years, Mass: 81.4±11.4kg, height: 181.7±7.3cm) with no history of lower extremity surgery, lower extremity injury in the past six months or any vestibular or balance disorders. Intervention: Participants completed both an external taping technique and a no taping condition. Main Outcome Measures: Three-dimensional kinematics and kinetics were collected with a 12-camera motion capture system and in-ground force plate. Participants completed 5 trials each of a sprint and an anticipated side-step cut with or without external ankle taping. Group means and associated 90% confidence intervals were plotted, with significance being identified when the confidence intervals did not overlap for three consecutive data points. Results: No significant differences in speed, kinetics, or kinematics were identified between conditions for the tasks. Conclusion: External ankle tape did not have a significant effect on the kinetics or kinematics in healthy adult males during a sprinting or anticipated side-step cutting task. However, the basis of the study was dependent on the assumption that ankle kinematics and kinetics would be changed. Future research should evaluate potential influences of external taping on lower extremity function in female or pathological participants.

Download or read book Ehlers Danlos Syndrome A Multidisciplinary Approach written by J.W.G. Jacobs and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2018-08-14 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Generalized hypermobility has been known since ancient times, and a clinical description of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is said to have first been recorded by Hippocrates in 400 BC. Hypermobility syndromes occur frequently, but the wide spectrum of possible symptoms, coupled with a relative lack of awareness and recognition, are the reason that they are frequently not recognized, or remain undiagnosed. This book is an international, multidisciplinary guide to hypermobility syndromes, and EDS in particular. It aims to create better awareness of hypermobility syndromes among health professionals, including medical specialists, and to be a guide to the management of such syndromes for patients and practitioners. It is intended for use in daily clinical practice rather than as a reference book for research or the latest developments, and has been written to be understandable for any healthcare worker or educated patient without compromise to the scientific content. The book is organized as follows: chapters on classifications and genetics are followed by chapters on individual types, organ (system) manifestations and complications, and finally ethics and therapeutic strategies, with an appendix on surgery and the precautions which should attend it. A special effort has been made to take account of the perspective of the patient; two of the editors have EDS. The book will be of interest to patients with hypermobility syndromes and their families, as well as to all those healthcare practitioners who may encounter such syndromes in the course of their work.

Download or read book Pediatric Pelvic and Proximal Femoral Osteotomies written by Reggie C. Hamdy and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-04 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique, case-based text offers a comprehensive discussion of pelvic and proximal femoral osteotomies in the pediatric population. Beginning with chapters on preoperative planning and radiologic evaluation of the adolescent hip, subsequent chapters are sensibly divided into three thematic sections, which use a consistent chapter format presenting the case history, relevant imaging, treatment goals, the management strategy, and clinical pearls and pitfalls. Part I describes the various pediatric pelvic osteotomies, including the Salter, Pol de Coeur, Tönnis, Pemberton, and San Diego approaches, among others. Pediatric proximal femoral osteotomies comprise part II, presenting the McHale procedure, varus and valgus osteotomies, Morscher osteotomy, and Shepherd’s Crook deformity, to name just a few. The final section covers combined and miscellaneous osteotomies and procedures for the pediatric hip, such as osteochondroplasty, hip instability, hip arthrodesis, and SUPERhip and SUPERhip2 procedures for congenital femoral deficiency. Each chapter is generously illustrated and includes a handy table of indications and contraindications for the procedure described. In infancy, childhood and adolescence, the hip joint is very susceptible to abnormalities (congenital or acquired) that may lead to morphological alterations with potential sequelae, specifically pain and difficulty to ambulate, sit and perform daily activities. Restoring normal anatomy and biomechanics of the hip joint by various pelvic and/or proximal femoral osteotomies remains the cornerstone in the management of these conditions. To this end, Pediatric Pelvic and Proximal Femoral Osteotomies will be an invaluable resource for all pediatric orthopedic surgeons, trainees and students both in the medical and paramedical field.
