Objective
Investigate effectiveness of cryotherapy on pain intensity, swelling, range of motion, function and recurrence in acute ankle sprain. Methods Searches were conducted on six databases for randomized or quasi-randomized controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating effectiveness of cryotherapy for pain intensity, swelling, range of motion, function and recurrence in acute ankle sprain. Selection of trials, data extraction and methodological quality assessment of included trials were conducted independently by two reviewers with discrepancies resolved by a third reviewer. Estimates were presented as mean differences (MDs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The quality of the evidence was assessed using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment (GRADE) approach. Results Two RCTs with high risk of bias were included. Both evaluated the additional effects of cryotherapy, comparing cryotherapy combined with other intervention versus other intervention stand-alone. Uncertain evidence shows that cryotherapy does not enhance effects of other intervention on swelling (MD = 6.0; 95%CI: 0.5 to 12.5), pain intensity (MD = −0.03; 95%CI: 0.34 to 0.28) and range of motion (p > 0.05). Conclusions Current literature lacks evidence supporting the use of cryotherapy on management of acute ankle sprain. There is an urgent call for larger high-quality randomized controlled trials. |
