Evaluación de la fuerza de los músculos de la pantorrilla mediante la prueba de elevación del talón
Abstract
The heel-raise test (HRT) is a common method to assess calf muscle strength and endurance. This procedure is not limited exclusively to evaluations but is also useful for measuring therapeutic outcomes and monitoring the course of the assessed conditions. Although there are multiple protocols for conducting this test, this study describes the steps that should be followed and provides recommendations for using the HRT.
