About this study
Official title: Effect Of Thoracic Mobility Versus Lumbopelvic Stabilization Exercises On Lower Extremity Flexibility, Dynamic Balance And Proprioception In Patients With Chronic Ankle Instability
The aim of the study is to investigate the effectiveness of thoracic mobility versus lumbopelvic stabilization exercises combined with ankle strengthening exercises with resistive band on patients with chronic ankle instability in terms of lower extremity flexibility, proprioception and dynamic balance.The participants were divided into two group as Thoracic Mobility group (n=15) and Lumbopelvic Stability group (n=15). In addition their exercise programs (2 times/wk, 8 wk duration), both groups were given home exercise ankle strengthening exercises.(3 sets/ 10 reps, 3 times/wk.)
Read the detailed description
The aim of the study is to investigate the effectiveness of thoracic mobility versus lumbopelvic stabilization exercises combined with ankle strengthening exercises with resistive band on patients with chronic ankle instability in terms of lower extremity flexibility, proprioception and dynamic balance. The study were conducted in Noi Physio Pilates Studio in Istanbul between November 2022 - January 2023 during 8 weeks. 30 volunteers with chronic ankle instability were included according to Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool (CAIT). The cut off value for the CAIT test was determined as 27. Participants who received 27 or less than this value were included in the study. All participants were right dominant. Lower extremity flexibility was assessed with Active Straight Leg Raise Test, proprioception (hip, knee, ankle) was assessed with Joint Position Sense Test using electronic goniometer. Determined angles for joints; hip flexion angle as 75°, knee flexion angle as 50° and ankle dorsiflexion as 10° plantarflexion as 40°.Y Balance Test (anterior, posterolateral, posteromedial) was used for evaluating dynamic balance. 30 participants were divided into two groups as thoracic mobility and lumbopelvic stability group. Both groups were given ankle strengthening exercises (dorsiflexion, plantarflexion, inversion and eversion) with resistive band. Home exercises were performed 3 days a week for a total of 3 sets of 10 repetitions. Thoracic mobility group was given; thoracic extension on foam roller, sidelying thoracic rotation, quadruped thoracic rotation, squat with extension and rotation. Lumbopelvic stabilization group was prescribed; bridge with alternate leg, single leg bridge, four point kneeling with arm and leg extension, side plank on front arm with knee flexed (right, left), sitting on a Swiss Ball and hip flexion.Sessions took approximately 50 minutes and exercise program was planned twice a week for 8 weeks, 16 sessions total. Both groups were given ankle strengthening exercises (dorsiflexion, plantarflexion, inversion and eversion) with resistive band. Home exercises were performed 3 days a week for a total of 3 sets of 10 repetitions.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Thoracic Mobility Rehabilitation, Lumbopelvic Stability Rehabilitation and Ankle Strengthening Home Exercises in people with Chronic Ankle Instability, run by Yeditepe University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Aug 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool (CAIT) (time frame: 8 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06020131, which also lists 36 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 Aug 2023.
