Assessment of Weight-bearing Ankle Range of Motion Using the Ankle Test and Lower Body Test and Its Relationship With Ligamentous Hyperlaxity in Child Basketball Players Aged 8 to 15 Years
Recruiting now
Conditions studied: Ligamentous Hypermobility of the Toe, Children Basketball Players
In brief
This research aims to complement existing podiatric studies by providing information on the relationship between ligamentous hyperlaxity, a benign condition more frequently found in the pediatric population, and ankle range of motion in child basketball players aged 8-15. Furthermore, this hyperlaxity will allow us to correlate it with the most frequent type of injury experienced by the participants and assess whether future research could develop a prevention plan for this population and extrapolate it to more professional categories.
