Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
HV night splint (SP) group
hallux valgus night splint
The HV night splint holds the hallux in abduction in order to provide a correct position. The SP group was given splints consisting of a rigid polyethylene bar along the medial of the hallux, and soft polyform and Velcro fastener parts.
exercise (EX) group
exercise
The exercises involved strengthening the AbdH (abductor hallucis) and plantar fascia muscles, and stretching the hallux
high-voltage galvanic stimulation (EL) group
Electrotherapy
Two self-adhesive electrodes were used. One was placed over the medial distal end of the first metatarsal and the other was attached to the motor point of the AbdH (inferior and posterior to the navicular tuberosity).21 The stimulation intensity was increased until a contraction was observed without causing discomfort and pain. Twenty-minute HVPGS was applied in total over three weekly sessions for four weeks.
