Background Motor control evaluation in subjects with functional ankle instability is questionable when both ankles of the same subject are compared (affected vs non-affected). Objective To compare the postural control and reaction time of ankle muscles among: basketball players with FAI (instability group), basketball players without FAI (non-instability group) and healthy non-basketball-playing participants (control group). Design Case-control study. Setting Laboratory. Participants Instability (n = 10), non-instability (n = 10), and control groups (n = 11). Main outcome measures Centre of pressure variables (area, velocity and sway) were measured with a force platform. Reaction time of ankle muscles was measured via electromyography. Results A one-way ANOVA demonstrated that there were significant differences between the instability and non-instability groups in the fibularis longus (p Conclusion Basketball players with FAI have reduced postural control and longer reaction time of the fibularis and tibialis anterior muscles. |
