Introduction: Balance impairment and related injuries are common in elderly and patients with neurologic disorders. Ankle foot orthosies can influence on balance via improvement of movement disorders. Therefore the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of modified ankle-foot orthosis on balance performance in healthy elderly. Materials & Methods: The research was conducted on ten ...
Objective: The ankle joint is the most frequently injured anatomical site in athletes. Ankle instability is responsible for 25% of all time lost from sport. Clinical efficacy of the effect of taping in athletes with chronic ankle instability is unknown. So the purpose of this investigation is the study of the influence of Mulligan ankle taping on dynamic balance in the athletes with and without...
objectives: this paper describes further improvement and preliminarily evaluation of a novel viscoelastic ankle-foot prosthesis prototype. the objective was to control the ankle hysteresis at slow and normal walking speeds. methods: inspired by the ankle biomechanics, in which the hysteresis differs based on the gait speeds, a manually damping control mechanism imbedded in the prosthesis for ad...
Introduction: The relationship between biomechanical parameters and different types of posture problems in association with running is unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the excursion changes at the hip, knee, and ankle joints during running in the patients with flat foot. Methods: The participants comprised 12 healthy men and 12 others suffering from flat feet disorder. They ...

BACKGROUND Improving ankle-foot orthosis design can best be done by implementing a user-centered approach. OBJECTIVE To provide insight into the ideas of ankle-foot orthosis users with flaccid ankle muscle paresis on the importance of activities and suggestions for an improved ankle-foot orthosis design. STUDY DESIGN A focus-group discussion with eight ankle-foot orthosis users (57 ± 5 year...
Background: Ankle-Foot orthoses are used to minimize the impact of weakness in ankle dorsiflexion muscles. The study on different orthotic types defines the optimal design, which effectively improves the users’ mobility. This study investigated the potential benefits and risks of a Dictus-band (flexible orthotic), compared with a thermoplastic (fixed) ankle-foot orthosis on the mobility of indi...
Background and purpose: Medial longitudinal arch (MLA) posture of the foot is usually associated with increased risk of lower extremity injury. This study investigated the effect of Whole Body Vibration (WBV) on torque of evertor and invertor muscles of ankle in low arched foot. Materials and methods: The participants were 40 young, untrained adults (male and female) with flat foot. The sub...
background: there is still controversy regarding the best technique for ankle arthrodesis to acheive stable rigid fixation along with reconstructing a functional plantigrade foot. moreover, existing techniques have complictions related to stability, soft tissue covering, fusion rate, and exposure. methods: with the anterior approach exactly on the tibialis anterior sheath, the joint was expose...
how to cite this article: dalvand h, dehghan l, feizi a, hosseini sa, amirsalari s. iran j child neurol. 2013 autumn; 7(4):12-19. abstract objective the purpose of this study was to examine the impacts of hinged and solid anklefoot orthoses (afos) on standing and walking abilities in children with spastic diplegia. materials & methods in a quasi-experimental design, 30 children with spastic dip...
