Brief Summary
|
Getting informed consent from the participants for the study - The study will be clearly explained in layman’s terms or regional language and informed consent will be obtained. The sample of 30 are to be selected within the age group of 15-32 years male and female participants (Holland B et al.,2019, Doherty C et al., 2018) the treatment session were to be performed for 5week. Then the participants are asked to provide the Demographic data along with functional ankle instability questionnaire (FAI) and Star excursion balance test (SEBT) which provide the basic analysis of participants current condition, ankle stability and proprioception level of the participants. Participants are made to do 50m freestyle swimming note the time in seconds and speed (m/s) of the participant as a pre-test analysis and after that proprioceptive training protocol has given to the participants for 1-5 weeks as per the intervention goes for 3 times in a week. After 5-week protocol completed then the participant made redo the 50m freestyle swimming, FAI and SEBT as the post-test analysis. This study was conducted at the SRMIST, Kattankulatur. The pre-test will be taken with questionnaire, clinical measure and swimming session. Further proprioceptive training protocol such as for 1st week single-leg stance, single-leg stance while swinging the raised leg, Single-leg squat (30°-45°), Open Single-leg stance while performing functional activities (dribbling, catching) all in eye open in bosu ball or wobble board. 2nd week single-leg stance, swinging the raised leg, single-leg squat (30°-45°) eye closed. 3rd week single-leg stance, swinging the raised leg, single-leg squat (30°-45°), Double-leg stance while rotating the board open eye. 4th week single-leg stance with eye closed, swinging the raised leg, single-leg squat (30°-45°), single leg stance while rotating the board with open eye. 5th week single-leg stance, single-leg squat, single-leg stance while rotating the board, single leg stance while performing functional activities (dribbling, catching). Follow them in online contact to check their continuation of exercises. Participants are following up in person for once in a week. At the end of the 5th week post-test will be taken by reassuring with 50m freestyle swimming speed & time, FAI and SEBT to rule out the result. |
