Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Ankle-Bot Training
Subjects in this group receive focused ankle training using the ankle-bot device.
Ankle-bot
The Ankle-bot is a piece of robotic therapy equipment for the ankle. In this study, it will be used to guide and assist the subject into ankle flexion, extension, inversion and eversion.
Conventional Therapy
Subjects in this group will receive conventional focused ankle physical therapy.
Conventional focused ankle therapy
Conventional focused ankle therapy will be performed by a physical therapist.
Control
Subjects in this group will not receive treatment; they will continue their usual care.
No interventions assigned to this group
