Auditory Feedback for Ankle Sprain

Q: Are elderly individuals eligible to participate in this trial?

Patients enrolling in this medical trial must be between 18 and 40 years old; however, there are 4 trials for minors and 19 studies available to those over 65.

Q: Is there currently an opportunity for participants to enroll in this clinical trial?

This research programme is no longer actively accepting participants based on data posted to clinicaltrials.gov, which was last updated 11/1/2022 since its original posting date of 10/5/2020. Nevertheless, there are 31 other studies that remain open for enrolment currently.

Q: Would I be eligible to partake in this medical study?

This trial is seeking 40 individuals aged between 18 and 40 who have sustained an ankle sprain. Eligible applicants must meet the following criteria: a documented history of at least one previous ankle sprain, index injury more than 12 months prior to enrollment, recent trauma event >12 weeks ago, IdFAI score above 10/100, FAAM-ADL &#x26; Sport subscales below 95% &#x26; 85%, respectively; as well as actively engaging in physical activity for 20 minutes per day on three occasions or more each week.

Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.

Primary outcome measures

Changes from baseline in lower extremity kinetics during walking

Changes from baseline in self-reported ankle function

Changes from baseline in talar cartilage deformation before and after walking

Secondary outcome measures

2. Changes from baseline in plantar pressure during forward lunges, lateral hops, and a step-down

Changes from baseline in static balance

Active Control

Group I: Auditory FeedbackExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

Participants will complete 8 sessions over a 2-week period of walking gait retraining on a treadmill while receiving auditory feedback.

Group II: No FeedbackActive Control1 Intervention

Participants will complete 8 sessions over a 2-week period of walking on a treadmill without receiving feedback.
