Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The features of CAI were confirmed through studies that 64% to 77% had extra-articular conditions mainly related to calf tendon disorder. In addition, joints are laxity, sensory motors are deficient, and the range of dorsi flexion is decreased. this study is to investigate the effects of active joint mobilization(AJM) under weight-bearing conditions to stimulate various proprioceptors for CAI with deficiency in sensorimotor and postural control.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Active Joint Mobilization

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Active joint mobilization

Intervention Type OTHER

The participants bend his knees in a prone position. The physical therapist holds the medial malleolus with one hand and the lateral malleolus with the other. At the same time, the physical therapist touches the participant's soles to the sternum area and presses them in the dorsal direction. At this time, medial malleolus glides anterior and lateral malleolus glides posterior. The first procedure is to passively recognize movement. The second procedure is accompanied by active movement of the participant.

Passive Joint Mobilization

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Passive joint mobilization

Intervention Type OTHER

PJM uses Maitland's Mobilization method, grade III (high amplitude in the end range of the joint and 1 second vibration in the middle range through linear motion in which tissue resistance is felt). The participant is in a supine position, and the physical therapist holds the talus with one hand and the tibia with the other hand, and performs joint mobilization in the posterior direction with the hand holding the talus.
