Effects of Rehabilitative Exercise and Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation on Muscle Morphology and Dynamic Balance in Individuals with Chronic Ankle Instability
Summary
Muscle atrophy due to chronic ankle instability (CAI) can lead to muscle weakness, altered movement patterns, and increased injury risk. This study investigated the effects of rehabilitative exercises and neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) on muscle morphology and dynamic balance in individuals with CAI.
Key Findings
Participants with CAI were divided into different groups and underwent a six-week intervention program. Significant improvements in muscle morphology and dynamic balance were observed in the intervention groups, suggesting that these programs may help prevent muscle atrophy and improve balance in CAI individuals.
Practical Solutions and Value
Clinical trials play a vital role in developing safe and effective treatments. Our AI-driven platform, DocSym, consolidates ICD-11 standards, clinical protocols, and research into an easily accessible knowledge base for clinicians. Additionally, our mobile apps support scheduling, monitoring treatments, and telemedicine, streamlining operations and improving patient outcomes. By using AI, clinics can enhance their workflows and reduce paper routines, ultimately expanding services digitally.
