Clinical Trial: Biomechanics and Intrinsic Foot Muscle Roles in Subjects With Chronic Ankle Instability

Study Status: Completed

Recruit Status: RECRUITING

Condition: Chronic Ankle Instability

Study Type: INTERVENTIONAL


Official Title: Lower Limb (Patho-)Mechanical Joint Contact Forces and Intrinsic Foot Muscle Properties in Subjects With Lateral Ankle Sprain and Chronic Ankle Instability

Brief Summary: The current study involves a prospective interventional study that primarily intends to compare foot joint loadings of participants with chronic ankle instability (CAI) with those of subjects who recovered after an ankle sprain (LAS copers) and healthy controls during running and more challenging tasks.This study further aims to explore the impact of foot muscle properties and fatigue on the same biomechanical outcomes.Therefore, the investigators will recruit 72 participants (24 per group) aged from 18 to 44…
