SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTER
JBI has developed a collection of world-class resources driven by the needs of health professionals and consumers worldwide.
Registration of Systematic Review Titles
Please note: this register is for the use of JBI affiliated entities ONLY. Registration of a systematic review title on the JBI website is to promote collaboration between affiliated entities via highlighting current work to other JBI review authors and to recognise that the registered topic is currently in development to avoid any unintended and/or unnecessary duplication of research effort.
Registered systematic reviews that are currently underway are listed below. Protocols for these reviews may already be published or in preparation for publication within six months of initial registration. To avoid duplication, titles in this list should not be replicated by other review authors. Please contact the listed Primary Reviewer or the JBI Synthesis Science Unit if you would like further information about any of these registered reviews.
Registration of titles on this web page does not in any way constitute acceptance of the topic by JBI Evidence Synthesis.

o conducted with Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander adults (≥18 years of age) living in the community. o related to cardiovascular disease (including: rheumatic heart disease, cardiac disease, AF, stroke, PVD (including cardiovascular events)) encompassing primary or secondary prevention, treatment or rehabilitation and recovery; o which develop and/or test an intervention or strategy that seeks to prevent or reduce the burden of primary and secondary CVD as listed previously; o that develop and/test strategies or interventions to improve risk factors for CVDs broadly . The study would meet criteria if the outcome measure used in the co-designed intervention/strategy was a measure of overall cardiovascular risk and was applied in primary prevention or secondary prevention following diagnosis of a CVD (it could include several risk factors but would imply strategy bundled them). (ie. not individual risk factors in isolation – for example, not strategies to reduce smoking). o interventions which seek to prevent cardiovascular events following onset of CVD or a first time CVE o interventions which seek to prevent the development of CVD associated with sequaele of rheumatic fever (eg. rheumatic heart disease) Using o Co-design (including co-production, co-creation, participatory action research methods with adult (>18 years of age) Australian Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander Peoples |

Participants will be of any age group, sex and ethnicity. Studies reporting on athletes with other musculoskeletal injuries other than ankle injuries or post-surgical cases will be excluded from the review.

This review will consider studies that will evaluate the effectiveness of external ankle supports, such as taping and bracing and their ability to prevent ankle injury and re- injury rates. Athletic taping is described as a temporary technique used to prevent injury. Under this definition the following types of taping are included, although not limited to adhesive elastic tape, any form of HYPERFIX or under wrap, any form of crepe bandages, any form of RIGID, SPORTS TAPE or STRAPPAL, any form of compressive tape, KINESIO taping, and DYNAMIC taping.
