Final Project


Name:
Injury:	4 days old Lateral Ankle Sprain
Healing Phase	Treatment Session	Treatment(s)	Outcome(s) of treatment	Treatment Parameters	Goal(s) Addressed
Inflammatory/ Proliferation	1	Cryotherapy- elevation of intemmitent compression.	reduce pain, reduce metabolism and swelling and limiting secondary injury.	mid-compression, 20 minutes	1 and 2
		Biphasic e-stim	lower subaute edema	motor level, 20 minutes, 250 μs, long phase duration , duty cycle 50%, pulse frequency <10pps	2
	2	Thrapeutic ultrasound	make tissues more permeable to therapeutic drugs	ultrasound of high frequency (1-10MHz), range of intensities (0-20 W/cm²)	1 and 2
	3	Low-level laser therapy	relieving pain	low power laser, low level light emmitting diodes	1 and 6
Proliferation	4	Cryotherapy - ROM exercise + cold whirlpool	cytokinetics, alloww pain-free exercise	20 minutes in a bucket full of ice at 50 degrees	3 and 4
		Cryotherapy, IFC e-stim	reduce swelling and pain from exercises, prevent formation of swelling as well as disinhibitory effect	20 minutes, at sensory level over the ankle joint	3 and 5
	5	Diathermy	Stimulate generation of heat within tissues of the body, increasing flow of blood, pain relief, increased mobility of tissues during healing	High frequency electric current	3
	6	LED light therapy	boost production of collagen, treat or minimize inflammation and redness	wavelengths of UV-free LED light	3 and 5
Proliferation/ Maturation	7	Thermotherapy -Moist heat pack	Increase flow of blood to the ankle, reduce pain	20 minutes	3
		Joint Mobilization	increase ROM free of pain	posterior join mobilization, 3 sets repeated 20-30 times,	4
	8	Balance exercise	regain strength, restore normal proprioception	20 sec of single leg balance on the floor repeated 10 times, if easy progress to foam.	4
		Therapeutic exercise	restoring and maintaining strength, flexibility, balance, stability and endurance, return patient to a state free of pain	45 minutes of physical activity	4
	9	Electric stimulation	treating muscle spasms and pain, building strength	general, muscular and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulations.	4

Goals:
1)	To reduce the pain of the patient to less than 4 on the scale of 1-10.
2)	To reduce the swelling in the ankle of the patient by 2cm.
3)	To aid the healing of the tissues through provision of an optimal environment for proper healing and protecting the joint and assisting in creation of optimal metabolic conditions to prevent any setbacks.
4)	Restoration of Normal ROM.
5)	To maximize the excitable pool of neuron through disinhibiting AMI.
6)	To control bleeding and prevent any further infections.
