Grants and Contracts Details
Description
The purpose of this study is to determine if adolescents with chronic ankle instability (CAI) display
similar deficits in performance of the star excursion balance test (SEBT) as a result of decreased
dorsiflexion range of motion (DF]ROM) when compared to adolescents with no injury
history. Adolescent participants will be measured for DF]ROM and will perform the anterior,
posterolateral, and posteromedial direction tasks of the SEBT. This is a case-control study in which
participants ages 12-17 will be pre]screened for inclusion criteria through the use of PROs, being placed
into the CAI or healthy control group through guidelines set by the International Ankle Consortium. We
expect that adolescent participants with CAI will display poorer measures on the SEBT in the anterior,
posterolateral, and posteromedial directions as a result of diminished DF]ROM.
