Muscle Synergies of the Lower Extremities During Gait Initiation in Individuals With and Without Chronic Ankle Instability

Chronic ankle instability (CAI) disrupts postural stability after ankle sprains and inadequate treatment. Gait initiation (GI), governed by central nervous system (CNS) patterns, is used to evaluate stability. Muscle synergy,… Click to show full abstract

Chronic ankle instability (CAI) disrupts postural stability after ankle sprains and inadequate treatment. Gait initiation (GI), governed by central nervous system (CNS) patterns, is used to evaluate stability. Muscle synergy, which reflects coordinated activations, reveals neuromuscular control. This study investigates lower limb muscle synergies during GI in individuals with and without CAI to understand their neuromuscular strategies.

Keywords: gait initiation; muscle synergies; muscle; chronic ankle; ankle; ankle instability
