“…a hip strategy) (Otten 1999). Although some studies showed beneficial effects of exercise programs on proprioceptive outcomes, like muscle reaction times (Hughes and Rochester 2008) and postural sway (Hughes and Rochester 2008), others found no evidence for an effect of rehabilitation programs on postural sway (van der Wees et al 2006). Moreover, both postural sway and muscle reaction time are characteristics that in addition to peripheral proprioceptive signals are dependent on an abundance of other variables.…”

Ankle proprioception is not targeted by exercises on an unstable surface

Laboratory study using a repeated measures design. The aim of this study was to determine if ankle proprioception is targeted in exercises on unstable surfaces. Lateral ankle sprain (LAS) has recurrence rates over 70%, which are believed to be due to a reduced accuracy of proprioceptive signals from the ankle. Proprioceptive exercises in rehabilitation of LAS mostly consist of balancing activities on an unstable surface. The methods include 100 healthy adults stood barefoot on a solid surface and a foam pad over a force plate, with occluded vision.Mechanical vibration was used to stimulate proprioceptive output of muscle spindles of triceps surae and lumbar paraspinal musculature. Each trial lasted for 60 s; vibration was applied from the 15th till the 30th second. Changes in mean velocity and mean position of the center of pressure (CoP) as a result of muscle vibration were calculated. Results show that on foam, the effect of triceps surae vibration on mean CoP velocity was significantly smaller than on a solid surface, while for paraspinal musculature vibration the effect was bigger on foam than on solid surface. Similar effects were seen for mean CoP displacement as outcome. Exercises on unstable surfaces appear not to target peripheral ankle proprioception. Exercises on an unstable surface may challenge the capacity of the central nervous system to shift the weighting of sources of proprioceptive signals on balance.

“…1 Additionally, we have identified alterations in the coupling of frontal plane ankle motion (inversion-eversion) and transverse plane tibial motion (internal-external rotation). 3 These findings indicate that there are not only kinematic alterations in isolated motions associated with CAI, but that the coordinated motion between adjacent segments is also altered. We have also found that these coupling relationships can be changed with supervised rehabilitation.…”

“…6,9 In recent years, we have begun assessing gait characteristics of individuals with CAI. Using a treadmill with imbedded force plates and synchronized with a 10-camera motion analysis system we have demonstrated that in barefoot walking and jogging that individuals with CAI tend to demonstrate a more inverted 3 and plantar flexed 2 position during late stance and swing phases than controls. Interestingly, we have also demonstrated that individuals with unilateral CAI demonstrate substantially more swing phase inversion and plantar flexion on both limbs again suggesting central alterations in sensorimotor control in the presence of unilateral joint pathology.…”

“…Interestingly, while the efficacy of some of these taping techniques has been shown, the mechanisms by which they prevent injury have yet to be clearly elucidated. 3,9 As well as taping techniques for ankle inversion sprains, practitioners frequently apply tape to relieve various overuse pain conditions of the foot and ankle. 4,6,8 These taping techniques are used to allow more normal amounts of movement and loading of the lower limb tissues to occur without exacerbation of pain.…”

The conference theme was "new dimensions on old problems," with a different emphasis on each day of the symposium: new dimensions on science, new dimensions on interventions, and new dimensions in the clinic, reflecting the mix of basic science and clinical practice.IAS4 brought together over 130 clinicians and scientists from a broad base of disciplines including physiotherapy, podiatry, biomechanics, orthopaedics, athletic training, and sports physicians. Participants represented many countries, including New Zealand, Brazil, Belgium, Ireland, Great Britain, Denmark, Korea, Iran, Netherlands, Qatar, Canada, and the United States. There was concern about the viability of the conference during the planning of IAS4 because of the global financial crisis and the pandemic of the H1N1 virus. Nevertheless, the number of delegates seemed to be undiminished, resulting in a vibrant, collegial conference.A call for abstracts was initially distributed in mid 2008. Prospective attendees were invited to submit abstracts of work relating to original research, case studies, or clinical commentaries. All submitted abstracts were reviewed for scientific merit by members of the scientific committee. Forty-nine abstracts were accepted and presented at the symposium. The scientific program consisted of 7 invited lectures and 4 workshops from internationally recognized experts and 32 podium and 17 poster presentations of origi- The meeting also provided an opportunity for further development of the work of the International Ankle Consortium, a multidisciplinary group that was formed at IAS2 with the aim of promoting increased harmonization and collaboration in ankle research. A Steering committee was formed, headed by Thomas Kaminski and Jay Hertel, to stimulate the development of the consortium and the future research strategies important to the area. Members of the consortium met to discuss the proposed strategies, future directions, and affirm the proposal to publish a consensus statement on ankle instability.The meeting also accepted a proposal from Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond, Virginia, to host the Fifth International Ankle Symposium during October 2012.This issue includes a summary statement of the conference, abstracts of the invited lectures and workshops, and the abstracts of the original research presentations, both podium and poster presentations, from IAS4. A nkle sprains continue to be one of the most common sporting injuries but also continue to be the subject of little attention from researchers, largely because of the lack of acknowledgement by funding bodies. Nevertheless, an increasing number of researchers continue in the quest to understand the consequences of ankle sprain, and particularly the resulting instability. Many of the long-held beliefs about the causes of persisting problems have been seriously questioned with the creation of new knowledge.A series of keynote presentations brought this new knowledge to IAS4. Keynote speakers came from a broad crosssection of scientific specialties that ...

“…In the clinical field, changes in the control and the stability of the ankle are chronically obtained by means of proprioceptive exercises (4-7) and by applying both neuromuscular and rigid bandages to the joint (5,8,9). Several types of exercise are proposed to improve proprioception, designed as either acute -designed strategies (6) or long -term training protocols.…”

Background: This study aimed at investigating the acute effects of combined EXERCISE and TAPING in comparison to isolated proprioceptive exercise (EXERCISE) and ankle neuromuscular taping (TAPING) on one -leg stability performance in rugby players. Methods: Stability tests, performed on a stabilometric platform, were assessed for stability before and after above interventions. Performed stability tests were one -leg static stance (dominant leg and non -dominant leg) each with eyes open and eyes closed. The assessed dependent variables were: centre of pressure (CoP) path length; CoP speed; medio -lateral, and anterior -posterior sway.
