Book The Effects of Prophylactic Ankle Bracing on Collegiate Women s Basketball Ankle Range of Motion  Static Balance  and Dynamic Balance

Download or read book The Effects of Prophylactic Ankle Bracing on Collegiate Women s Basketball Ankle Range of Motion Static Balance and Dynamic Balance written by Damian Ignacio Aguilar and published by . 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.

Book Effects of Ankle Support on Time to Stabilization of Subjects with Stable Ankles

Download or read book Effects of Ankle Support on Time to Stabilization of Subjects with Stable Ankles written by Raquel Elise Martin and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to determine if prophylactic ankle tape and/or ankle braces improve dynamic stability in TTS measure. All subjects were healthy and had no prior history of ankle injuries. Data collection consisted of each subject performing a single leg jump-landing with ankle tape, ankle brace, combination of the two, and control (no tape or brace) conditions. Dynamic stability was assessed with time to stabilization force plate measure. Significant plane by ankle tape interaction (p=0.045) was found. No significant plane by ankle tape by ankle brace interaction (p=0.637), no significant ankle tape by ankle brace interaction (p=0.483), or plane by ankle brace interaction (p=0.697) were found. A notable finding was that subjects took longer to stabilize in the anterior/posterior direction than medial/lateral direction. In conclusion ankle tape, ankle brace, and the combination of ankle tape and ankle brace did not statistically improve dynamic stability in healthy ankles.

Book Injuries in Athletics  Causes and Consequences

Download or read book Injuries in Athletics Causes and Consequences written by Semyon M. Slobounov and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-06-17 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past decade, the scientific information on psychology of injury has increased considerably. Despite dramatic advances in physical education of coaches, field of medicine, athletic training, and physical therapy, the sport-related traumatic injuries is our major concern. Athletic injuries, both single and multiple, have a tendency to grow dramatically. Accordingly, prevention of sport-related injuries is a major challenge facing the sport medicine world today. The purpose of this book is to accumulate the latest development in psychological analyses, evaluation, and management of sport-related injuries, including traumatic brain injuries. No two traumatic injuries are alike in mechanism, symptoms, or symptoms resolution. There is still no agreement upon psychological diagnosis and there is no known comprehensive treatment for sport-related injuries for regaining pre-injury status. Physical symptoms resolution is not an indication of "psychological trauma" resolution.
