Biomechanical changes in the gastrocnemius medius–Achilles tendon complex in people with hypermobility spectrum disorders: A cross-sectional compression sonoelastography study

Biomechanical changes in the gastrocnemius medius–Achilles tendon complex in people with hypermobility spectrum disorders: A cross-sectional compression sonoelastography study

ObjectiveThis study aimed to assess the biomechanical impact of Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders (HSD) on the elasticity of the gastrocnemius medius-Achilles tendon (GM-AT) complex.MethodsUsing a cross-sectional design, the GM-AT complex elasticity was compared using sonoelastography (SEG) in an HSD...
