Summary

Case-control study to evaluate gait parameters during different conditions between patients who suffer from chronic ankle instability and healthy individuals.

Detailed description

This case-control study will compare the different gait parameters such as stride time and stride length variability in different gait conditions (e.g., normal speed, normal speed with dual task, fast speed and fast speed with dual task) between healthy individuals and patients who suffer from chronic ankle instability. the measurements will be collected using the OPTOGait system installed on a treadmill.

Conditions

• Chronic Instability of Joint

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Gait analysis	Gait will be analysed while participants will walk on a treadmill at different self selected speeds, using the OPTOGait system. Spatiotemporal measures are collected without the use of any markers.
