Protocol summary

Study aim
Comparison of the effect of Mulligan type and Kinesio tape on neuromuscular control of ankle muscles in response to sudden disturbance in patients with chronic ankle instability
Design
A clinical trial with a control group, cross-over, randomized study. 23 patients are enrolled in the study. Each subject receives three treatments (control, Malignant type, and Kinesiotape), in a random order.
Settings and conduct
First, the evaluation is done and then the participants receive the treatment (control, malignant type, or Kinesio tape) for 24 hours. The assessment is then performed again, after which the participants receive other crossover treatments. Our study will be single-blind so that the data analysis will be done by another person. The study site will be in the school of Rehabilitation, Tehran University of Medical Sciences.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 18 to 35 years old The initial sprain must have occurred at least 12 months before enrollment in the study At least 1 ankle sprain was associated with inflammatory symptoms Exclusion criteria: A history of previous surgery to the musculoskeletal structures in either lower extremity
Intervention groups
1. Kinesio tape group 2. Mulligan tape group 3. Control
Main outcome variables
Time of short and medium latency response The amplitude of short and medium latency response

Inclusion/Exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria:
18 to 35 years old The initial sprain must have occurred at least 12months prior to the study enrollment At least 1 ankle sprain was associated with inflammatory symptoms Having ‘‘giving way’’ or ‘‘feeling of instability. At least 1 ankle sprain resulted in at least 1 interrupted day of desired physical activity The most recent injury must have occurred more than 3 months before enrollment in the study. Having unilateral ankle sprain
Exclusion criteria:
A history of previous surgery to the musculoskeletal structures in either lower extremity A history of fracture in either lower extremity requiring realignment Acute injury to the musculoskeletal structures of other joints of the lower extremity in the previous 3 months that affected joint integrity and function and resulted in at least 1 day of interrupted desired physical activity

Primary outcomes

1

Description
Time of short and medium latency response
Timepoint
Before and 24 hours after treatment
Method of measurement
The time of medium and short latency response will be calculated based on a Baseline-Based Method. Thus, the time of short latency response is considered as a moment that Electromyography (EMG) activity will higher than the mean value plus 3 standard deviations (SD) and must be above the threshold at least 10 ms. The time of medium latency response is considered as a moment that Electromyography (EMG) activity will higher than the mean value plus 3 standard deviations (SD) and Stay above the threshold at least 20 ms. The mean value was assessed in the first 20 ms after the beginning of the short latency response.

2

Description
Amplitude of short and medium latency response
Timepoint
Before and 24 hours after treatment
Method of measurement
The amplitude of medium and short latency response will be calculated based on a Root Mean Square. Two 20 millisecond (ms) windows were defined. The first window started at the onset of the short latency response and the second window started 30 ms later after the onset of the short latency response. The 10 ms division between the two windows.

Secondary outcomes

1

Description
Antagonist co-activation during short and medium latency response
Timepoint
Before and 24 hours after treatment
Method of measurement
The Antagonist Co-activation for Peroneus and Tibialis Anterior Muscles The Antagonist Co-activation for Tibialis Anterior and soleus Muscles we will measure with formula

Intervention groups

1

Description
First intervention group (Kinesio Tape group)- The kinesio type is placed on the Proneus Langus and Brevis and the anterior tibialis muscles for 24 hours with a tension of 35% ٪-25% from the origin to insertion of the muscle.
Category
Rehabilitation

2

Description
Second intervention group (Mulligan tape)-A painless posterior, lateral and superior glide is applied to the fibula in the inferior tibiofibular joint and then the tip is closed around the ankle.
Category
Rehabilitation

3

Description
Control group (Without Tape)- In this group, the patient does not receive treatment.
Category
Rehabilitation
