Context: Although dozens of individual mechanical and functional insufficiencies have been
reported in those with chronic ankle instability (CAI), no authors to date have examined the …

Context: Functional rehabilitation may improve the deficits associated with chronic ankle
instability (CAI). Objective: To determine if balance-and strength-training protocols improve …

Objective: To determine if functional performance is impaired in individuals with self-
reported chronic ankle instability. Design and Setting: We used a between-groups design to …

Objective: To examine the concept of dynamic ankle stability and closely critique the
relevant research over the past 50+ years focusing on strength as it relates to those with …

Context: Functional ankle instability has been defined in a variety of ways. Factors that are
frequently used in this definition include a history of a severe ankle sprain, a history of …

Context: Individuals with chronic ankle instability (CAI) have reported decreased global and
regional function. Despite the identification of functional deficits in those with CAI, more …

Abstract Context: The Hertel model of chronic ankle instability (CAI) is commonly used in
research but may not be sufficiently comprehensive. Mechanical instability and functional …

Context: Although functional-performance tests are dynamic measures used to assess
general lower body function, studies investigating these tests for ankle instability have …

Study Design Case control study. Objectives To classify individuals with functional ankle
instability (FAI) into deficit and no-deficit categories based on the evaluation of the most …

Context: Despite the importance of patient's subjective reports of function, little research has
addressed their use in the athletic population. Objective: To examine the following …
