Subjective Disability And Dynamic Postural Stability Scores Predict Ankle Instability Status

Context: A small percentage of people who sprain their ankle function as if they were uninjured (copers) due to a mechanism that has not yet been defined or characterized. Understanding differences between copers and ankle instability (AI) patients may elucidate the underlying mechanisms and may hel...

Zusammenfassung:Context: A small percentage of people who sprain their ankle function as if they were uninjured (copers) due to a mechanism that has not yet been defined or characterized. Understanding differences between copers and ankle instability (AI) patients may elucidate the underlying mechanisms and may help develop an evidence based model that can predict increased risk of AI. Objective: Two objectives were to determine: 1) best predictors of ankle group membership (coper vs. AI), and 2) sensitivity and specificity for identifying copers.
