RECRUITING

Effect of Mobilization With Movement on Weight Bearing Ankle Dorsiflexion Range of Motion

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

Limited ankle range of motion is associated with increased risk for ankle sprains, knee joint dysfunction and injury to the ACL. Therefore, it is important that researchers and clinicians understand the best treatment options to increase ankle range of motion for injury prevention. We are recruiting adults with limited ankle range of motion who are lacking current ankle injuries for a treatment investigation. All study procedures will occur on the campus of the University of South Carolina by a licensed Physical Therapist and experienced researcher.

Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. * The sole inclusion criterion will be a limitation in active ankle dorsiflexion range of motion to less than 20 degrees in weight bearing in one or both ankles.
  1. * Exclusion criteria include self identified feelings of ankle instability or known diagnosis of chronic ankle instability, dermatologic conditions such as open wounds or impaired sensation which inhibit the ability to use the mobilization strap, and inability to get into the testing position or perform a lunge during the intervention.
