NCT ID: NCT05471297 Completed - Injuries Clinical Trials

Loads, Injuries and Illnesses Among Elite Handball Players

PPDC-2022
Start date: July 20, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Primary goal of the research is to determine whether injury/illness occurrence is influenced by the academic, training and competition loads, as well as the overall load (sum of academic/work, training and competition loads) in elite handball athletes To examine whether subjective measures of perceived overall stress correlate with objectively measured levels of stress. Determine the benefits of certain biomarkers to monitor stress, load and injury/illness occurrence in athletes.

NCT ID: NCT05047497 Completed - Clinical trials for Occupational Diseases

Ventilatory Functions, Oxygen Saturation, and Quality of Life Response to Long Time Cement Dust Exposure

Start date: May 1, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Thousands of people are working daily in a dusty environment. Many studied reported respiratory symptoms and ventilatory disorders among Factory workers who exposed to cement dust. But the evidence for respiratory effect and daily activities over a long time of cement dust exposure has not been conclusive

NCT ID: NCT05019781 Completed - Clinical trials for Musculoskeletal Pain

The Effectiveness of Kinesio Taping in Violin Players

Start date: September 1, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of Kinesio taping (KT) on playing-related pain, upper extremity and hand function, grip and pinch strength in violin players. One hundred seventeen participants who were professional violinists for at least two years were randomized to receive either therapeutic tape application (KT group), a sham tape application (placebo group) or no application (control group) for one week. The primary outcome was the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) in one week. The secondary outcomes were the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), the Purdue Pegboard Test, grip and pinch strength. Outcome measures were performed at baseline, immediately after the intervention, and one week later (follow-up). Participants were asked to play the "Violin Concerto No.2, Op.35", and pre-and post-performance pain and grip and pinch strength were assessed.

NCT ID: NCT04075279 Completed - Clinical trials for Cardiovascular Diseases

Heart at Work Study

Start date: October 17, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This is an observational study to examine the cardiovascular mechanisms of increased cardiovascular mortality in those with high activity occupations.

NCT ID: NCT03738202 Completed - Clinical trials for Occupational Diseases

Multifaceted Intervention for Protection Against Cotton Dust Exposure Among Textile Workers

MultiTex-RCT
Start date: June 15, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Textile workers are exposed to various harmful substances during work, including cotton dust, which is the dust present in air during the handling or processing of cotton. Previous research found a link between cotton dust exposure and impaired respiratory health. This study will comprise of administration and workers' training regarding preventive measures for protection against respiratory illnesses. Workers will be provided free, disposable face masks and measures to reduce cotton dust exposure will be introduced at the textile mills. The study would then determine the effectiveness of this intervention on reduction in cotton dust levels in the mills, and improvement in respiratory health of workers. This study would help the cotton textile workers and managers reduce the health hazards of cotton dust exposure and also guide researchers from Pakistan and other low-resource countries towards developing relevant strategies for health protection of these workers.

NCT ID: NCT03559153 Completed - Clinical trials for Occupational Diseases

Effect of Passive and Active Rest Break in Musculoskeletal Complains

Start date: June 20, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Work-related musculoskeletal disorders are highly disabling. Therefore, finding preventive solutions is fundamental, in order to reduce the damages to workers and society. Therefore the objective of this study will be to evaluate the effect of passive and active pauses in the control of musculoskeletal complaints of office workers. This is a randomized controlled trial by cluster, which will be performed with 286 office workers (administrative sectors). Employees with physical disabilities will not be included in the study. The workers will be distributed into three groups: active control group, and the two intervention groups massage and workout gymnastics. The active control group and the other groups will be guidelines on ergonomic adjustments of the work station, and performing a 10-minute break every 50 minutes work. The intervention groups (passive and active) will receive different interventions: group massage in the chair and group gymnastics labor. The massage will be performed 2x per week for 10 minutes, and workout 2x per week for 15-20minutes. The primary outcomes assessed will be musculoskeletal complaints of pain intensity. And as a secondary outcome will be the ability to work, perception of ergonomic risk factors, psychosocial factors and fatigue, level of physical activity. Outcomes will be assessed at baseline and after 4 months. It is expected that exercise intervention (active pause) is more effective than passive pause (massage), and that pause and guidance can reduce musculoskeletal complaints, pain intensity, and other outcomes evaluated.

NCT ID: NCT02450916 Completed - Psychological Clinical Trials

An Interview Study With Injured Workers Concerning Their Experiences With the Social Systems and Psychosocial Health Consequences

Start date: July 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Objective: In addition to physical discomforts, work-related injuries and illnesses often result in various forms of hardships, including economic hardship, labor conflicts and legal disputes. The physical and psychological health conditions are likely to be worsen when the social supporting systems are not well functioning. In this study, the investigators aim to conduct in-depth interviews with injured workers to study their experiences with the social systems, including employment protection system, workers' compensation system, health care system and other social welfare systems, and to explore how the systems may affect workers' physical and psychological health. Methods: Face-to-face interviews will be conducted with a semi-structured questionnaire. Subjects who had ever experienced work-related injuries or diseases (including muscular skeletal disorders and work-related cardiovascular or cerebrovascular diseases) over the past 3 years are invited. The investigators anticipate to recruit a total of 60~100 cases, whom will be recruited through the assistance of occupational physicians, occupational health centers, labor groups and unions. Interview time will be limited to 1 hour. Anticipated results and contribution: Findings of this study will help to advance our knowledge concerning the functions of current social systems and the hardships of workers who suffer from work-related injuries and diseases. Suggestions will be provided for the improvements of current systems. Keywords: work-related injury, occupational disease, workers' compensation, psychological, policy.
