The Effect of Additional Neurodynamic Intervention in Patients With Chronic Ankle Instability
Approximately 40% of acute ankle sprain would develop into chronic ankle instability (CAI). Chronic ankle instability is characterized by pain, repeated sprains and giving way. Recently, the pathomechanical impairment, sensory-perceptual impairment and motor-behavioral impairment have been documented in the chronic ankle instability model. Previous research revealed that compared to the …
Auditory Biofeedback Gait Training Individuals With Chronic Ankle Instability
The goal of this randomized clinical controlled trial is examine the effects of gait training with auditory biofeedback (AudFB) on gait biomechanics, clinical measures of ankle joint health, and patient-centered outcomes. The following specific aims will achieve this objective: Specific Aim 1: Determine if a 6-week gait training with AudFB …
Effect of Eccentric Streching vs IASTM of Gastrocnemius and Soleus Muscles in Athletes With Ankle Sprain
The primary objective within the current study is to compare the acute and chronic effects of eccentric training and IASTM on the dorsiflexion ROM. To reduce the risk of Achilles tendinopathy, stretching and eccentric (lengthening) exercises are postulated to improve ankle dorsiflexion. An eccentric exercise lengthens an active muscle while …
A Mobile Recovery Guidance App for Children and Young Adults With Acute Ankle Inversion Injuries
Ankle sprains are the most common musculoskeletal complaint of children presenting to the emergency department (ED). Healing can often be protracted, leading to prolonged pain, missed school and work, and delayed return to a normal activity level. Smartphone apps have been shown to be associated with greater caregiver knowledge and …
Progressive Eccentric VS Bodyweight Exercises on Agility, Power and Functional Performance in Hamstring Strain.
The study is randomized and single blinded. Ethical approval is taken from ethical committee of Riphah international university Lahore. Participants who meet the inclusion criteria will be enrolled and allocated in group A and group B through sealed envelope method by non probability convenient random sampling technique. Subjects in group …
The Effect of Taping on Plantar Pressure Distribution in Players With Chronic Ankle Instability
The goal of this study is to investigate whether there exists a difference in baropdometric readings of plantar pressure between individuals with chronic ankle instability and normal health individuals, in addition another goal of this study is to investigate the effect of rigid taping vs. kinesio taping on plantar pressure …
Spinal and Supraspinal Control in Chronic Ankle Instability
Ankle sprains are common sports injuries that often lead to chronic ankle instability (CAI). Patients with CAI experience deficits in neuromuscular control (NMC), including proprioception and strength. It is believed that damage to the ankle's ligament mechanoreceptors and the peroneal nerve after the initial ankle sprain can cause alterations in …
Remimazolam and Propofol on the Left Ventricular Strain During Anesthesia Induction for Non-cardiac Surgery
This study to compare the impacts of remimazolam or propofol on the left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LV-GLS) during anesthesia induction for non-cardiac surgery. LV-GLS is analyzed by using speckle tracking technique of transthoracic echocardiography.
Influence of Indoor Humidity on Physiological Strain in Older Adults During a Simulated Heat Wave
Laboratory-based studies show that exposure to high humidity can worsen the effects of heat stress in young and older adults by impeding sweat evaporation - the main mechanism by which the human body cools itself. At high levels of humidity, the efficiency of sweating decreases causing a greater rise core …
Prevention of Clostridium Difficile Infections Using Lactobacillus Plantarum 299v Strain in Nephrology and Transplantation Department
The aim of this study was to analyze whether the use of the LP299v strain reduces the risk of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) among patients receiving antibiotics and hospitalized in the nephrology and transplantation ward. Adutt patients from risk group (receiving immunosuppressive drugs and treated with antibiotics) were enrolled into …
