Abstract Details

2019, Master of Science in Exercise and Health Studies, Miami University, Exercise and Health Studies.
Ankle ligament sprains and anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are two of the most common injuries. Both injuries have major implications on long-term functional health with chronic instability and in ACL injuries, with arthritis. While medial ankle sprains are not as common as lateral ankle sprains, both the short-term and long-term implications are more difficult with the acute difficulties of rehabilitation and chronic instability. Time to stabilization has been found to be a possible predictor of ACL injuries, specifically with backwards jumps. This same approach has not been taken for ankle sprains. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine if time to stabilization could be a predictive value for ACL injuries and ankle injuries, specifically medial ankle ligament sprains. Independent sample and single sample T tests were run to examine the differences between an injured group and an uninjured group. No significance values were found in the average time to stabilization of backwards and forwards jumps (p=.735 and .876 respectively), or between the fastest time to stabilization of backwards and forwards jumps (p=.157 and .849 respectively). This preliminarily data suggests that time to stabilization is not a predictive value of ACL or medial ankle sprain injury.
