Scientists map ankle mechanics to solve chronic instability
NCT ID NCT05815576
Summary
This study aimed to understand why some people develop chronic ankle instability after a sprain while others recover fully. Researchers compared the leg and foot movements of 72 physically active men in three groups: those with chronic instability, those who recovered well, and healthy individuals. They used motion-capture cameras and sensors to measure joint forces and muscle properties during running and challenging tasks.
