This book was released on 2011 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our primary purpose in this study was to compare the effects of wearing the five-toed socks with grippers alone (FSG), regular socks alone (RS), both five-toed socks and an ankle brace (FSGB), and both regular socks and an ankle brace (RSB) on dynamic postural control as measured with Time to Stabilization Resultant Vector (RVTTS) after landing from a jump in chronic ankle instability (CAI) and matched control subjects. The secondary purpose was to compare the effects of wearing FSG, RS, FSGB, and RSB on subjective measures concerning comfort, stability, and confidence in preventing the ankle from a potential injurious situation during the jump-landing procedure in CAI and matched control subjects. Forty eight subjects between the ages of 18 and 30 years old were recruited from the university community, and the subjects were separated into those with (n=24) and without unilateral CAI (n=24). RVTTS and subjective measures were recorded with jump-landing procedure. There was no significant difference in any of the outcome measures in RVTTS. The result of the subjective measurement revealed that, the regardless of the sock conditions, wearing an ankle brace improves comfort, stability, and confidence during a jump-landing procedure among CAI subjects. Future study should determine how enhanced foot gripping and plantar tactile sensation provided by the FSG plays a role in dynamic postural control among CAI subjects.

Download or read book Comparison Between Ankle Taping and Prophylactic Bracing written by Deptee Warikoo and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chronic Ankle Instability is a condition resulting from inadequate healing of teared ligaments which when subjected to constant motion and stretching, either heal elongated or are replaced with a mass of scar tissue leading to loss of integrity of the ligamentous support and instability of ankle joint which in turn causes recurrent ankle sprains. The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of commercially available semi-rigid ankle brace with ankle taping on dynamic balance and functional limitations in patients with unilateral chronic ankle instability. The result of the present study suggests that bracing has significant improvement in reach deficits as compared to taping in subject with Chronic Ankle Instability.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ankle braces are often used by athletic trainers across the nation in hopes of preventing ankle related injuries. Since prophylactic ankle braces are widely used and accepted, it is critical to understand the effects prophylactic ankle braces are having on ankle functionality and postural control both in a braced and non-braced state. However, the effects of prophylactic ankle braces over the period of a season has limited research. Thirteen collegiate women's basketball players, who are required to wear prophylactic ankle braces through a 20-week season, participated in this study. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of prophylactic ankle bracing on passive range of motion, static balance (COG displacement, COG pattern tracking over a period of time), and dynamic balance (COG displacement in a dynamic setting, COG pattern tracking over a period, reach measures through SEBT) in collegiate women's basketball players across a 20-week season span. We rejected the null hypothesis and found differences in ROM, increases in Postural Stability scores, and improvements with Limits of Stability (LOS) scores. We also found a significant decrease in the anterior/lateral quadrant of the ASL test which suggests a change in COG placement over the 20-week span of the season. Although wearing prophylactic ankle bracing over the period of season showed shifts in ROM, improvements in COG location and postural stability scores, further research is needed on wearing ankle braces over a long period of time to determine when these changes are happening.

This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Musculoskeletal injuries sustained during physical training and sports-related activities are the greatest threat to military force readiness. Injuries sustained during physical training are one of the principal reasons for the inability of service men and women to be deployed and for the almost 25 million limited duty days accrued annually. Ankle sprains have been shown to be a leading cause for military disability and are a long-term health care issue, potentially leading to a medical discharge. Military parachuting studies have demonstrated the benefits of using an outside-the-boot ankle brace to reduce the risk for sustaining an ankle injury, but the use of ankle bracing on other performance measures in the military have not been established. The first chapter of this dissertation focused on reviewing existing literature that investigated the effects of ankle bracing on functional performance measures in civilian populations. It was concluded in the literature that ankle braces, used in healthy physically active populations, have little statistical impact on balance and functional performance measures. The second chapter of this dissertation focused on reviewing how ankle braces effect performance measures in military specific populations. At this point, only one study has specifically evaluated how these devices affect performance measures, and the remaining studies focused only on the reduction of ankle injuries. Due to the lack of literature available, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of ankle braces on dynamic balance and three functional performance measures in a Reserve Officers Training Corps. This randomized crossover study indicated significant results in which ankle braces do create negative effects for balance reach distances, max jump height, max jump distance, and obstacle course completion time. This is the first study to evaluate ankle braces in a military sample while wearing battle dress uniform, combat boots, and a loaded rucksack.

This book was released on 2000 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ankle injuries comprise more than 15% of all sports injuries worldwide. The efficacy of the ankle taping for injury prevention has long been under scrutiny as numerous studies have shown that tape rapidly loses its ability to constrain ankle motion with exercise. Consequently, ankle braces (orthoses) are being used with increasing frequency for the prevention and functional management of ankle injuries. However, the motion restraining qualities of ankle orthoses have not been widely evaluated in closed kinetic chain environments under physiologic loads. The primary purpose of this study was to compare the abilities of four ankle orthoses (ankle taping, lace-up brace, semirigid orthosis and hybrid brace) against a control condition (no brace or tape) to control subtalar and talocrural motion during running on a laterally-tilted treadmill at 16.2 km/h before and after exercise. It has been hypothesized that ankle orthoses make a secondary contribution to injury prevention through enhanced proprioception. The secondary purpose of this study was to quantify the effects of the aforementioned ankle orthoses on postural stability during single-limb stance following a bout of exercise. Fifteen healthy university students (8 men and 7 women) with no history of significant ankle injuries (age, mean ± SD: 22.9 ± 3.9 years) volunteered to participate in this study. Three-dimensional kinematic data were captured with an active infrared digital camera system sampling at 120 Hz. To address the first question, data analyses were performed using 2way univariate (Ankle Orthoses x Pre/Post-Exercise x Subjects) (5 x 2 x 15) repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) to determine the existence of differences among three closed and four open kinematic chain dependent measures before and after exercise. Maximum inversion angles (MAXINV) were similar for all ankle orthoses, with no orthosis limiting inversion during tilted treadmill running significantly more than another, or compared to the control condition, either before or after exercise (p>.05). Pre-exercise MAXINV group means and standard deviations during treadmill running ranged from 6.8 ± 3.4 deg with the Royce Medical Speed Brace to 9.5 ± 4.1 deg in the tape condition; post-exercise MAXINV mean values ranged from 7.6 ± 3.2 deg for the Aircast Sport Stirrup to 9.1 ± 4.6 deg with closed basketweave tape. While not statistically significant (p=0.10), ankle taping provided the least amount of inversion restraint, both before and after the exercise bout. The MAXINV angles measured during treadmill running (8.2 ± 4.0 deg) and open chain inversion AROM measured with a goniometer (34.5 ± 6.2 deg) were not related (r=-0.0003). The compressive forces present during closed kinetic chain activity are known to increase joint stability and thus may explain why MAXINV under dynamic varus loads was so much less in magnitude than inversion AROM measured under open kinetic chain conditions. The nonlinear relationship of these two variables supports our contention that reports of the motion controlling properties of ankle orthoses measured in open kinetic chain environments should not be used to infer the response characteristics of these same orthoses under dynamic, physiologic loads. To address the second question, data were analyzed using 3-way univariate (Ankle Orthoses x Pre/Post-Exercise x Eyes Open/Closed x Subjects) (5 x 2 x 2 x 15) repeated measures ANOVAs. Subjects' postural stability was assessed using a Biodex Balance System with eyes open and eyes closed conditions, before and after an exercise bout. The ankle orthoses evaluated did not influence postural stability as measured by mediolateral sway index, anteroposterior sway index, and overall sway index. Removal of visual perception via blindfolding resulted in significant decreases in all three measures of postural stability (p=.001). There was poor association among the closed chain postural stability parameters and the open chain AROM measures. These correlations ranged from r=.04 to .17, indicating minimal relationship between the amount of AROM permitted by the orthoses and postural stability as quantified by this method.
