Effects of 4-week impairment-based rehabilitation on jump-landing biomechanics in chronic ankle instability patients

To determine effects of 4-weeks of impairment-based rehabilitation on lower extremity neuromechanics during jump-landing. Descriptive laboratory study. Twenty-six CAI subjects (age = 21.4 ± 3.1 sex=(M = 7,F = 19), height = 169.0 ± 8.8 cm, weight = 71.0 ± 13.8 kg) completed 15 jump-landing trials pri...

Description
Summary:To determine effects of 4-weeks of impairment-based rehabilitation on lower extremity neuromechanics during jump-landing. Descriptive laboratory study. Twenty-six CAI subjects (age = 21.4 ± 3.1 sex=(M = 7,F = 19), height = 169.0 ± 8.8 cm, weight = 71.0 ± 13.8 kg) completed 15 jump-landing trials prior to and following 12 supervised rehabilitation sessions. Frontal and sagittal lower extremity kinematics and kinetics and sEMG amplitudes (anterior tibialis, peroneus brevis, peroneus longus, and medial gastrocnemius). Means and 90% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated for 100 ms prior to and 200 ms following ground contact. Areas where pre- and post-rehabilitation CIs did not overlap were considered significantly different. Kinematic and kinetic peaks and kinematic excursion were compared with paired t-test (P ≤ 0.05). Following rehabilitation, CAI subjects exhibited less ankle (2.1° (0.8, 3.4), P
