In the detection of ankle injuries, the Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool (CAIT) has been widely used. However, despite its validity and reliability as acclaimed by some therapists, certain inadequacies are still present due to the differences in judgements made by the physiotherapists and human subjects. This project investigates the possible use of the Pro.Balance™ as a tool to detect potential ankle injuries. Preliminary results have shown that the CAIT score and the Overall Performance Index obtained from Pro.Balance™ are correlated. Balancing tests should be done on difficulty levels 2 and 3 so as to achieve a more reliable and accurate diagnosis. Future work includes having a larger sample size to further verify the results.
