Ankle Instability

This study will evaluate whether tissue flossing with different pressure levels, when combined with exercise training, improves ankle function in young adults with chronic ankle instability. Forty-eight participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: a control exercise group, a 150 mmHg tissue flossing plus exercise group, or a 200 mmHg tissue flossing plus exercise group. All groups will complete the same 6-week rehabilitation program, three times per week. Outcomes will be assessed at baseline and after the intervention, and long-term follow-up data will also be collected.

The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the immediate and short-term effects of the Graded Motor Imagery (GMI) method on individuals with chronic ankle instability (CAI). In this context, the effects of the Graded Motor Imagery intervention on pain level, muscle stiffness, muscle strength, functional performance, and subjective instability level will be investigated. Additionally, these effects will be comparatively analyzed with an age- and sex-matched control group consisting of healthy individuals.

This 20-year cohort study foolows patients after ankle ligament reconstruction surgery to evaluate re-rupture rates, long term functional outcomes, return to sport rates ans complications? The goal is to provide insights into the procedure's durability and effectiveness to enhance patient care.

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare at 5 years the sporting activity of patients whose ankle had been treated by reconstruction or repair following chronic lateral instability. The main question it aims to answer is: What is the long-term sporting activity status of patients whose ankle had been treated by reconstruction or repair following chronic lateral instability ? Participants will visit the clinic once every year during 5 years for clinical checkup.
