Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
This study is comparing the reactive postural control of physical education students who suffer from chronic ankle instability (CAI) to healthy students on a Perturbation Treadmill. The device consists of a treadmill mounted on a moving force plate platform. The platform moves in the medial/ lateral plains to simulate a slip and a trip in both the standing and walking phase. Their reactive postural control is tested in a few conditions: standing on both legs - eyes open and eyes closed, in tandem standing, standing on one leg and in walking. In each condition the perturbration is given every 5-15 seconds in different speed and in unexpected direction (right /left). Lost of balance control is any change in the original location of the foot in standing conditions or stepping out of the treadmill.
