Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
It has been reported that there is a change in sensorimotor function in the activity of individuals with CAI, and they are more dependent on visual information in balance parameters on one leg.While the somatosensory input was clinically feasible; The obstruction of the visual input has been limited in two ways, the eyes being fully open or fully enclosed.However, this changing dynamic has provided a means for the prevention of visual input during more sporty maneuvers, to directly reach compensatory neuroplastic sequelae after injury and to function in a functional way to train the neuromuscular system.This technological innovation makes this possible by reducing the visual input without completely eliminating it.This innovation, called stroboscopic goggles technology, provides a mechanism to disrupt to any degree between eyes closed and open in the visual system.
Stroboscopic vision, characterized by intermittent vision obstruction, can be a clinical tool that allows clinicians to study sensory feedback in a progressive manner without fully seeing visual information. So use stroboscopic goggles to prevent visual information, you can improve the functionality by emphasizing the somatosensor information.In particular, visual manipulations can significantly influence the healthy adult electrocortical dynamics and balance control by triggering the contradiction between visual adult, vestibular and proprioceptive inputs.
The aim of this study, which was planned for this purpose, will be to evaluate the effects of neuromuscular exercises performed on stroboscopic environment on equilibrium, neural feedback and running mechanics.
