Ankle-dorsiflexion range of motion and landing biomechanics.
CONTEXT A smaller amount of ankle-dorsiflexion displacement during landing is associated with less knee-flexion displacement and greater ground reaction forces, and greater ground reaction forces are associated with greater knee-valgus displacement. Additionally, restricted dorsiflexion range of motion (ROM) is associated with greater knee-valgus displacement during landing and squatting tasks....
متن کاملLower limb landing biomechanics in subjects with chronic ankle instability.
PURPOSE The literature on lower limb kinematic deviations in subjects with chronic ankle instability (CAI) during landing tasks is limited and not consistent. Several studies only report joint angles at defined events rather than considering the whole kinematic curve, which might obscure possibly relevant information. Therefore, the main goal of this study was to evaluate landing kinematics of ...
متن کاملReliability and validity of a weight-bearing measure of ankle dorsiflexion range of motion.
PURPOSE To examine reliability and validity of the Lunge Test (LT) of dorsiflexion range of motion and determine the impact of different approaches to obtain a score on these parameters. METHODS Fifty-three patients with ankle injury/dysfunction provided initial assessment data for cross-sectional convergent and known-groups validity analysis with the Pearson coefficient (r) and paired t-test...
متن کاملWeight-bearing ankle dorsiflexion range of motion-can side-to-side symmetry be assumed?
CONTEXT In clinical practice, the range of motion (ROM) of the non involved side often serves as the reference for comparison with the injured side. Previous investigations of non-weight-bearing (NWB) ankle dorsiflexion (DF) ROM measurements have indicated bilateral symmetry for the most part. Less is known about ankle DF measured under weight-bearing (WB) conditions. Because WB and NWB ankle D...
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...
