Results: Of the sample studied (n = 55), 90.9% presented urinary incontinence, the ages of greatest prevalence ranging between 76-85 years old. The correlation coefficients obtained were -0.048 and 0.183 which would indicate a weak association between these variables.

When evaluating, obtaining reliable data is substantial for the development of a diagnosis and future treatment; as well as the results and prognosis of the patients. Only through reliable measures, can we make predictions about future injuries. Hence its importance. General Objective: Determine the level of risk of injury to lower limbs through active measurement of the range of ankle dorsiflexion in the students of Physiotherapy at the University of Cuenca. Methodology: A quantitative, descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted in physiotherapy students of the University of Cuenca; applying the "Lunge Test" through the mobile application "Dorsiflex". The results are presented in frequencies and percentages using the SPSS software, version 25.0. Results: An information search was completed for academic purposes, evaluating 103 Physiotherapy students, 71 women and 32 men, with an average age of 21.77; of which 42.71% (n = 44) showed a high risk of lower limb injuries. Observing a statistically significant relationship between the decrease in dorsiflexion with the presence of pain (r = -0.157, p = 0.024), and with the history of previous injuries (r = -0.278, p = 0.001). Conclusion: In this study, a representative percentage (42.71%) of the participants presented a high risk of suffering lower limb injuries; as their ranges of ankle dorsiflexion were below the norm.
