Sažetak
Objective: Functional adaptation of ankle/foot range of movement (ROM) measurement in paralympic swimming. Methods: Interpretation of adapted joint mobility testing for the specific functional range of movements for paralympic swimming. Results: The amount of functional ankle/foot range used in Freestyle (S) strokes is very different to Breaststroke strokes (SB). S – Dorsiflexion starts at 40 degrees of plantarflexion. Points are awarded for the amount of movement achieved from this point moving towards neutral. The ankle does not have to achieve neutral range as this is not required during the stroke. Dorsiflexion is essentially measured in what is considered plantarflexion. The movement direction is important. SB – Dorsiflexion starts at neutral and points are allocated for the active range available from neutral (This range is NOT measured in S). S – Plantarflexion starts at 8 degrees of plantarflexion and points are awarded for active movement up to 41°+ (Plantarflexion range from 0-8 degrees is not allocated with points). SB – Plantarflexion starts at 0 degrees and points are allocated for the active range available from neutral (The initial part of this range is NOT measured in S). S – Supination starts at 0° and ends at 30° +. SB – Supination starts at 0° and ends at 33° +. S – Pronation starts at 30° of supination/inversion and ends at 0° + (This range is NOT Measured in SB). SB – Pronation starts at 0° and ends at 21° +. Conclusion: S stroke requires an ankle/foot to be mostly plantarflexed and supinated. SB stroke requires the ankle/foot to utilize all available range thus the measurement method is adapted to the needs of paralympic swimming.
