Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Mobilisation with movement(MWM) and Conventional treatment  1. MWM for inversion ankle sprain as described by Mulligan - Patient is lying supine with foot and ankle resting on the end of the plinth, a pain-free posterior glide of the distal fibula is carried out with respect to the stabilized tibia. While the fibula glide is sustained the patient performs pain-free ankle inversion to the maximum available range. 2. 6 to 8 repetitions per set, with 3 sets 3. Following the MWM 2 layers of rigid tape will be applied to the patient’s distal fibula spiraling proximally around the leg, replicating the MWM procedure 4. Conventional treatment- Immobilization in posterior ankle brace for not more than 2 weeks Non weight bearing or weight bearing ambulation as tolerated. Ice application X 20 mins / 3 times a day Compression- using a compression bandage Elevation of the leg while lying or resting Non weight bearing ankle dorsiflexion and plantarflexion mobility exercises for initial 1 week Weight bearing ankle dorsiflexion range of motion progressed based on patient response. Strengthening exercises to ankle musculature progressed based on patient response. Proprioceptive and balance trainingprogressed based on patient response.  
Comparator Agent  Placebo and Conventional treatment  1. Sham MWM - Patient is lying supine with foot and ankle resting on the end of the plinth, Contact round the fibula and tibia in similar manner to that of MWM but no force is applied directly to the fibula while the patient does ankle inversion within limit of pain. 2. 6 to 8 repetitions per set, with 3 sets 3. Sham tape will be applied to the ankle 10 cms above to that of the MWM position without replicating the MWM procedure 4. Conventional treatment - Immobilization in posterior ankle brace for not more than 2 weeks Non weight bearing or weight bearing ambulation as tolerated. Ice application X 20 mins / 3 times a day Compression- using a compression bandage Elevation of the leg while lying or resting Non weight bearing ankle dorsiflexion and plantarflexion mobility exercises for initial 1 week Weight bearing ankle dorsiflexion range of motion progressed based on patient response. Strengthening exercises to ankle musculature progressed based on patient response. Proprioceptive and balance trainingprogressed based on patient response.

Brief Summary  

This study is a parallel group single blind, placebo controlled randomised trial with the objective of comparing the effect of Mobilization with movement and conventional therapy with placebo and conventional treatment. Total 32 subjects with grade 1 or grade 2, acute or sub-acute ankle inversion sprain will be recruited  and will be allocated to either group with simple computer generated allocation. Worst pain intensity in the previous 24 will be measured on Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) for Pain as primary outcome. Secondary outcomes include  Foot Ankle Disability index (FADI), Ankle Functional dorsi-flexion range of motion, Peripheral sensitization by pain pressure threshold, Y balance test (YBT), Central sensitization by pain pressure threshold over mid-deltoid. Outcome measures will be assessed at baseline prior to treatment, at the end of 2 week, 1 month and 6 months post intervention.  Subjects will receive treatment for 2 weeks, 3 sessions per week, for a total of 6 sessions. Home exercise program will be given at the end of trial which will be progressed as per patient’ s response. After completing data collection, analysis will be done on intention to treat basis.
