Short-leg cast immobilization or splinting is another treatment option in such cases. To determine the clinical efficacy and antiedema effects of cohesive taping and short-leg cast immobilization in acute low-type ankle sprains of physically active patients, we performed a preliminary clinical study to assess objective evidence for edema and functional patient American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) scores with these alternative treatments.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n Fifty-nine physically active patients were included: 32 in the taping group and 27 in the short-leg cast group within a year. If a sprain was moderate (grade II) or mild (grade I), we used functional taping or short-leg cast immobilization for 10 days. We evaluated the edema and the functional scores of the injured ankle using the AOFAS Clinical Rating System on days 1, 10, and 100.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n In each group, edema significantly decreased and AOFAS scores increased indicating that both treatment methods were effective. With the numbers available, no statistically significant difference could be detected.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n Each treatment method was effective in decreasing the edema and increasing the functional scores of the ankle. At the beginning of treatment, not only the level of edema but also the initial functional scores of the ankle and examinations are important in making decisions regarding the optimal treatment option.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.7547\/13-130.1","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,12,8]],"date-time":"2014-12-08T10:53:39Z","timestamp":1418036019000},"page":"307-312","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Cohesive Taping and Short-Leg Casting in Acute Low-Type Ankle Sprains in Physically Active Patients"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"105","author":[{"given":"Mustafa","family":"Uslu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, D\u00fczce University, D\u00fczce, Turkey."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mustafa E.","family":"Inanmaz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, Sakarya University, Sakarya, Turkey."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mustafa","family":"Ozsahin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Treatment and Rehabilitation, Duzce University, D\u00fczce, Turkey."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cengiz","family":"Is\u0131k","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, Izzet Baysal University, Bolu, Turkey."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mehmet","family":"Ar\u0131can","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, D\u00fczce University, D\u00fczce, Turkey."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yavuz","family":"Gecer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, D\u00fczce University, D\u00fczce, Turkey."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","reference":[{"key":"i8750-7315-105-4-307-b01","series-title":"Med Sci Sports Exerc","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1991","DOI":"10.1097\/00005768-200112000-00003","article-title":"A multi-station proprioceptive exercise program in patients with ankle instability","volume":"33","author":"Eils\n E,","year":"2001","unstructured":"Eils\n E, \n \n Rosenbaum\n D: \n \n A multi-station proprioceptive exercise program in patients with ankle instability.
