2 Min Read Published on: 20 hours ago Findings by Loma Linda University researchers on lateral ankle sprains have been included in two new clinical practice guidelines established by the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA). Researchers from the Physical Therapy department of Loma Linda University School of Allied Health Professions in Loma Linda, California, United States, identified an alternative approach to help clinicians examine and treat patients with chronic lateral ankle sprains and instability. They found that muscular impairments in the hip are associated with abnormal movement patterns in those individuals with chronic ankle sprains. Based on their study results, researchers recommend clinicians include hip muscle performance in the assessment protocol and support interventions, with a special focus on the inclusion of hip muscles when treating patients with chronic ankle sprains.
