(English) Episode 17-The Earlobe's Secret - Unlocking Ankle Proprioception with Simple Video Analysis

The ability to dynamically reintegrate proprioceptive signals after they have been perturbated is impaired in certain pathologies. Evaluation of proprioceptive reintegration is useful for clinical practice but currently requires expensive laboratory tools. We developed a simple method, accessible to clinicians. Research question: Is two-dimensional (2D) video analysis of earlobe displacement a valid and reliable tool for the evaluation of ankle proprioceptive reintegration following muscle vibration?(Picot B, Dury J, Néron G, Samozino P, Terrier R, Rémy-Neris O, et al.
