Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
1. Dorsiflexion range of motion of ankle joint. Timepoint: Goniometer for assessing the dorsiflexion ROM at baseline, 2nd, 4th, 6th & 8th week. Method of measurement: Goniometry is a technique used to measure the range of motion (ROM) of joints, including the ankle joint. In the case of the ankle, a specific instrument called a goniometer is employed. To measure ankle dorsiflexion and plantar flexion, the goniometer is positioned with its stationary arm aligned with the fibula (lateral malleolus) and its movable arm aligned with the dorsum of the foot on the lateral side of the ankle joint. Plantar flexion is evaluated by pointing the toes downward, while dorsiflexion is measured by actively moving the foot toward the shin. The angles of dorsiflexion and plantar flexion are recorded in degrees. Goniometry enables the quantification of ankle joint ROM, which is valuable for diagnosing conditions, monitoring rehabilitation progress, and assessing the effectiveness of treatment interventions.
