Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome 1. Evaluate the range of motion of ankle dorsiflexion in a closed kinetic chain using the method Weight Bearing Lunge Test (WBLT), which presents the parameters in numbers (dorsiflexion angle and distance between the participant's foot and a wall);;Found outcome 1. An increase in ankle dorsiflexion range of motion was observed, verified by the Weight Bearing Lunge Test (WBLT), from the observation of a variation of at least 5% in pre- and post-intervention measurements; | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome 2. Evaluate the ankle plantarflexion and dorsiflexion range of motion in an open kinetic chain using the two-dimensional ankle kinemetry method, which presents the parameters in numbers (dorsiflexion and plantarflexion angle);;Found outcome 2. The range of motion of ankle plantarflexion and dorsiflexion in open kinetic chain, verified by two-dimensional ankle kinemetry, did not show a variation of at least 5% in pre- and post-intervention measurements;;Expected outcome 3. Evaluate the isometric strength of ankle dorsiflexors, plantiflexors, inverters and evertors using a handheld dynamometer (SP Tech, MedEOR Medtech, Brazil), which presents the parameters in numbers (kilograms);;Found outcome 3. A decrease in the strength of ankle evertors and inverters was observed, verified by the manual dynamometer, from the observation of a variation of at least 5% in the pre- and post-intervention measurements;;Expected outcome 4. Evaluate the dynamic postural balance using the Modified Star Excursion Balance Test method, which presents parameters in numbers (centimeters); ;Found outcome 4. An increase in dynamic postural balance was observed, verified by the Modified Star Excursion Balance Test, from the observation of a variation of at least 5% in pre- and post-intervention measurements; ;Expected outcome 5. Evaluate the height and flight time of the vertical jump using the two-dimensional kinemetry method, which presents the parameters in numbers (centimeters to evaluate the height and seconds to evaluate the flight time); ;Found outcome 5. The height and flight time of the vertical jump, verified by two-dimensional kinemetry, did not show a variation of at least 5% in the pre- and post-intervention measurements; | — |
