Introduction to Ankle Functional

Functional outcomes based on the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score, Karlsson Ankle Functional Score (KAFS), and Tegner Activity Scale were then compared between the HSNR group and the LSNR group.

1 have published in the journal Clinical Rehabilitation the systematic review with metaanalysis entitled “Kinesio taping is superior to other taping methods in ankle functional performance improvement: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

The first question that the provider must ask when evaluating a patient with a foot and ankle functional limitation because of weakness or pain is, “what are the patient’s expectations?” One option for the patient who desires to return to a higher level of function is a novel, custom dynamic orthosis (CDO) that, when coupled with an advanced rehabilitation program, has improved outcomes in patients following lower extremity trauma who have plateaued after traditional rehabilitation pathways.

The single leg balance, single heel raise, and sidestep tests are useful to assess not only ankle functional performance but also isokinetic muscle strength.

The American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score, Karlsson Ankle Functional Score (Karlsson score) and Tegner activity score were used to evaluate ankle function at a follow-up of a minimum of 2 years.

CONCLUSIONS Six sessions rather than one session of manual therapy improves ankle functional performance for individuals with CAI.

Results The functional loss rate of joints （except ankle） was 26%-48%，and the ankle functional loss rate was 51%-64%.
