Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Single-leg-stance Wobble Board test, assessed by ground reaction forces parameters mean centre of pressure velocity and mean horizontal ground reaction forces.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Postural control: mean centre of pressure velocity and mean horizontal ground reaction forces during single-leg-stance with eyes open and closed on a Kistler force plate Ground reaction forces during one-leg-hop test Orthopaedic clinical ankle examination Foot pressure management using the Footscan® during two-leg-stance and gait Subjective severity of the functional ankle instability (questionnaire): - Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool (CAIT) - Chronic Ankle Instability Scale (CAIS) Clinical ankle score (form will be filled in by investigator): - Karlsson score Pre-injury and actual activity level: - Tegner score - One of four classes according to the International Knee Documentation Committee standards: (1) strenuous, which includes jumping, pivoting, hard cutting (football, soccer, volleyball, tennis, hockey); (2) moderate, which involving agility of the lower limbs but not jumping, hard cutting, or pivoting (heavy manual work, skiing); (3) light, which includes sports that do not involve agility of the lower limbs (light manual work, jogging, running); or (4) sedentary. Activity level was defined on the basis of the most strenuous work or leisure activities that the patient performed on a regular basis.	—
