Joint Stability Characteristics of the Ankle Complex in Female Athletes With Histories of Lateral Ankle Sprain Part II: Clinical Experience Using Arthrometric Measurement

摘要

Context:This is part II of a 2-part series discussing stability characteristics of the ankle complex. In part I, we used a cadaver model to examine the effects of sectioning the lateral ankle ligaments on anterior and inversion motion and stiffness of the ankle complex. In part II, we wanted to build on and apply these findings to the clinical assessment of ankle-complex motion and stiffness in a group of athletes with a history of unilateral ankle sprain.
