Athlete Clinical Trial - Effects of Oculomotor Exercises on Volleyball

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The researcher aimed to investigate the effects of oculo-motor exercises on dynamic visual acuity, balance and performance of volleyball players whose performance can be improved with visual skills training. H0: Oculo-motor exercises applied to volleyball players are effective on dynamic visual acuity, balance and performance. H1: Oculo-motor exercises have no effect on dynamic visual acuity, balance and performance in volleyball players.

Clinical Trial Description

This study on the Effect of Oculo-Motor Exercises on Dynamic Visual Acuity, Balance and Performance in Volleyball Players was ethically approved by the "Istanbul Medipol University Non-Invasive Ethics Committee" with file number 10840098-604.01.01-E.14171 on 16.04.2020. The study included 52 female volleyball players aged 16-26 who played participants for at least 3 years without interruption. Power analysis was performed using the 3.1.9.5 version of the G-Power program to determine the number of individuals to be included in the study. Type-1 was accepted as 0.05 and power ratio as 80%. Effect size 0.8 was taken. According to the results of the power analysis, the number of participants required to be included in the study was determined as 52. Participants; Age, height, weight, gender, body mass index, dominant side, position played in volleyball, number of weekly training, daily training time, previous sports injuries, education status, smoking and alcohol use, accompanying illnesses were questioned. FBT and YBT were used for balance evaluations, and Nelson's Hand Reaction Test was used for reaction times. In addition, Dynamic Visual Acuity and Vertical Jumping distances were evaluated twice before and after treatment. Participants included in the study, the control group continued their routine ball training after the evaluations, while the intervention group continued with the oculo-motor training for 4 weeks, 6 days a week, in the morning and evening, for 10 minutes, 2 times a day, in addition to normal ball training. they did the exercises. While doing the exercises, individuals were taught to focus on the purpose they held in their hands, move their head, and aim fast enough to see the image clearly. Two repetitions each week were added to the exercise numbers. Ten seconds rest between two sets and five seconds rest between movements. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
