“…Acute ankle inversion trauma has also been reported to impair peroneal nerve function. 122 Kleinrensink et al 122 noted decreased superficial and deep peroneal motor nerve conduction velocity in all 22 patients examined 4 to 8 days postinjury. No clinical signs of peroneal nerve palsy were present, and the sample included patients with grade I, II, or III sprains.…”

“…118,120,121 The peroneal muscles may be injured with an inversion sprain, resulting in decreased motor recruitment initially after injury and leading to secondary loss of eversion strength. 122 In 1998, Konradsen et al 116 reported that they were unable to test isometric eccentric eversion strength in 20% (n ¼ 9) of their 44 participants at 3 weeks postinjury. All participants demonstrated a decreased eccentric eversion moment postinjury that normalized at 6 weeks posttrauma.…”

Objective: To present recommendations for athletic trainers and other allied health care professionals in the conservative management and prevention of ankle sprains in athletes.Background: Because ankle sprains are a common and often disabling injury in athletes, athletic trainers and other sports health care professionals must be able to implement the most current and evidence-supported treatment strategies to ensure safe and rapid return to play. Equally important is initiating preventive measures to mitigate both first-time sprains and the chance of reinjury. Therefore, considerations for appropriate preventive measures (including taping and bracing), initial assessment, both short-and long-term management strategies, return-to-play guidelines, and recommendations for syndesmotic ankle sprains and chronic ankle instability are presented.Recommendations: The recommendations included in this position statement are intended to provide athletic trainers and other sports health care professionals with guidelines and criteria to deliver the best health care possible for the prevention and management of ankle sprains. An endorsement as to best practice is made whenever evidence supporting the recommendation is available.

“…Peroneal muscle weakness (Bosien et al 1955, Tropp 1985 after immobilization of the muscle or due to overstretching of the peroneal nerves at the time of inversion trauma have been described (Hyslop 1941, Nitz et al 1985. Kleinrensink et al (1994) found a prolonged peroneal reaction time as a result of such overstretching. However, Larsen and Lund (1991), who looked at muscle activity instead of at reaction time, found no significant differences between the healthy and the diseased legs of patients with unilateral chronic instability.…”

“…Consequently, neuromuscular dysfunction is seen as an important factor in the etiology of CAI. 14,[22][23][24][25][26]30,37,45 Most published studies on reaction time 9,11,18,19,24,26,30,36,45 are based on trapdoor experiments, measuring surface electromyography (EMG) response of lower leg muscles. To assess muscle recruitment, latency time (defined as the time between disturbance of the equilibrium and the first EMG signal) is often used as the outcome measure.…”

Study Design: A comparative study. Objectives: To assess whether in subjects with unilateral chronic ankle instability the dynamic reaction time of the affected ankle differs from the healthy ankle and from ankles of a control group. Background: Reaction time is an essential element in joint protection against sudden unexpected excessive movement requiring fast and coordinated muscle action. During a sudden ankle inversion movement, a reflex action of the evertor muscles is needed to counteract the movement. Adequate neuromuscular response is crucial and a delayed response could contribute to inversion trauma and subsequently to chronic ankle instability. The isokinetic dynamometer acceleration time (ACC-TIME) provides valuable information on dynamic neuromuscular ability. Material and Methods: Patients with unilateral chronic ankle instability (n = 11) and healthy individuals in a control group (n = 11) were tested on an isokinetic dynamometer during 3 sets of 3 reciprocal inversion/eversion movements of both ankles at 30°/s and 120°/s. Analysis of variance models were used to compare the ACC-TIME of the affected ankle to the unaffected ankle of the same subjects and a control group. Results: For the evertor muscles at 30°/s and 120°/s a significantly prolonged ACC-TIME was found when comparing the affected ankles to the contralateral ankles and both ankles of the control group. For the invertor muscles at 120°/s a significantly prolonged ACC-TIME was found when comparing the affected ankle to the unaffected ankles of patients and those of the control group. Conclusions: Because the most important evertor muscles are innervated by the fibular nerve, the significantly prolonged ACC-TIME of the affected ankle is consistent with the finding of a lower motor nerve conduction velocity of the fibular nerve after inversion trauma. The results support the concept of a delayed neuromuscular response as an important factor in the etiology of chronic ankle instability. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2006;36:72-79.
