Passive dorsiflexion stiffness is poorly correlated with passive dorsiflexion range of motion.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to determine the relationships among passive measures of weight-bearing dorsiflexion range of motion, non-weight-bearing dorsiflexion range of motion and dorsiflexion stiffness, thereby establishing whether they assess similar mechanical characteristics, as each measure has been implicated in injury risk during landings. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. ...
متن کاملIncreased passive ankle stiffness and reduced dorsiflexion range of motion in individuals with diabetes mellitus.
BACKGROUND The purpose of our study was to compare ankle range of motion and stiffness in individuals with and without diabetes mellitus using a reliable and valid technique and to document the effect of knee flexion and severity of pathology on ankle range of motion and stiffness. METHODS Twenty-five individuals with diabetes mellitus and 64 nondiabetic individuals, similar in age and gender...
متن کاملInfluence of Walking with Talus Taping on the Ankle Dorsiflexion Passive Range of Motion
[Purpose] This study investigated the effects of walking with talus taping on the ankle dorsiflexion passive range of motion (DF PROM) in individuals with limited ankle DF PROM. [Subjects] Fifteen ankles with limited DF PROM were examined. [Methods] After rigid strapping tape was applied to the ankles from the talus to the calcaneus, progressing posteriorly and inferiorly, the subjects walked o...
متن کاملThe influence of gastrocnemius stretching combined with joint mobilization on weight-bearing ankle dorsiflexion passive range of motion
[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of gastrocnemius stretching combined with talocrural joint mobilization on weight-bearing ankle dorsiflexion passive range of motion. [Subjects] Eleven male subjects with bilateral limited ankle dorsiflexion passive range of motion with knee extended participated in this study. [Methods] All subjects received talocrural joint mob...
متن کاملWeight-bearing passive dorsiflexion of the hallux in standing is not related to hallux dorsiflexion during walking.
STUDY DESIGN Case control study. OBJECTIVE To explore the validity of the assumptions underpinning the Hubscher maneuver of hallux dorsiflexion in relaxed standing, by comparing the relationship between static and dynamic first metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint motions in groups differentiated by normal and abnormal clinical test findings. BACKGROUND Limitation of motion at the first MTP join...
