Filter by:The role of hamstring has been studied in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury prevention, mainly to counteract the anterior tibial translation , especially when contracting eccentrically, but also with passive stiffness. However, little is known about the passive hamstring stiffness after ACL reconstruction (ACLR). The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the passive stiffness of hamstring muscles after ACLR by using an isokinetic device. Secondary, we aimed to test the individual and surgical characteristics associated with hamstring stiffness and the impact of hamstring stiffness on RTS and knee re-injury. The hypotheses are that hamstring stiffness will be lower in the ACLR leg compared to the uninjured leg and to healthy individuals. Also, we hypothesized that hamstring stiffness will be lower after hamstring autograft compared to patellar tendon autograft and will increase progressively after ACLR to be symmetrical at the time for RTS. Also, we hypothesized that hamstring stiffness could be associated with better outcomes at RTS (RTS at same level and lower re-injury rates)
The purpose of this study is to evaluate continuous ultrasound treatment with diclofenac coupling patch during routine care of musculoskeletal injuries which failed conservative treatment to better understand clinical utilization of the treatment on types of injuries, how the treatment helps patients (pain, function and quality of life), and information on healthcare provider ordering the therapy and general workflow. Low-intensity continuous ultrasound (LICUS) is a bio regenerative technology used when normal rehabilitation is insufficient, applied with a wearable device (SAM, Zetroz Systems LLC) for daily use. The treatment provides long-duration ultrasound for approximately four hours. The objective of this study is to examine the real-world outcome data on symptoms improvement and return to function using SAM during routine care.
Basketball is a team sport that requires specific motor skills to develop different technical-tactical actions. Within the specific movements, landings after a jump are very common and require optimal technical performance, good stability and symmetry. Alterations in these components have been linked to an increased risk of injury. The objective of the present study is to identify functional alterations in the jump / landing technique that basketball players present. Cross-sectional study carried out from Septembre to Juny. The participants were basketball players aged 12 to 14 years. The main variables were: ankle stability, dynamic knee valgus, central stability, symmetry of the lower extremities. The tests used were: Abalakov Test, Single Hop Test for distance, Single-leg vertical countermovement jump test, Cross Over Hop test, One Leg Balance Test.
All the data of patients with patellar dislocation will be collected to evaluate the anatomic deformities. The data includes X-ray, CT, MRI examinations, medical records, and physical examination information. Finally, we correlate the anatomic deformities with clinical efficacy. To search for the risk factors that lead to patellar dislocation and influence the therapeutic effect.
This study aims to precisely describe epidemiology of injuries than occur during practice of crossfit. Each participant will complete questionnaires in order to identify injuries. The first questionnaire will be completed at the moment of the inclusion and the second questionnaire will be completed if participant has injuries every 3 months until month 12.
Basketball is a team sport where aerobic and anaerobic performance is important. Knowing how to reduce common injuries and risk is important when designing a warm-up exercise program for basketball. Various warm-up programs, including neuromuscular training, are thought to reduce the incidence of lower extremity injuries and improve athletic performance in athletes. There are several neuromuscular training programs designed to improve joint position sense, increase joint stability, develop protective joint reflexes, and ultimately prevent lower extremity injuries. In the literature, there is a need for studies comparing the effects of various warm-up programs applied to adolescent licensed basketball players on injury risks and basketball-specific sportive performance parameters. Therefore, the aim of the study is to examine the effects of different exercise programs on injury risk and sportive performance in adolescent basketball players.
Background Nowadays, in elite demanding football, injuries are a delicate issue as affects player's availability for the teams to win games and attain trophies.Following an injury, the appropriate recovery is vital to return athletes quickly and safely to their sport, based on pre injury physical and psychological levels. Delay in rehabilitation can result in prolonged pain and a delayed return to sports, a finding that emphasizes the importance of proper rehabilitation procedure during injury recovery.On field functional rehabilitation, a key point in injury recovery in football , as presented in the definition of rehabilitation ,obtained the interaction of the person with the environment he lives and provide him/her the ability to optimize functionality. Especially in sports, the last one is applied via ecological theory in sports with a wealth of benefits for the player during injury recovery on filed. Ecological theory bring us closer to the sport from a realistic approach , can provide an explanation to many situations that arise in sports and understands the athlete as a part of his/her own surroundings. Ideally, through injury recovery , the focus should be more on the biological time needed for the injury to recover, while trying to maintain the skills of the athlete during the rehabilitation process. Adequate and appropriate cognitive and neuromuscular skills should be maintained in high level, in activities that normally occurred during training or games. In this Context, application of ecological theory in football on field functional rehabilitation provide to the player the ability to maintain this skills, according with the high demands of elite football players.The maximum retention of football specific skills and the adaptation of injured tissue in an injury football player take place on his/her natural environment of action , the field . What sports medicine community knows? Until today, disunity of opinions prevalent among sports medicine community about on filed functional rehabilitation during injury recovery.The majority of the clinicians apply on field functional rehabilitation, called as traditional on filed rehabilitation, as the late phase of injury recovery ,where the player comeback on filed activity when he had already restore maximum or the average strength and function based on pre injury screening or standard value.The progression of the player during the late phase of injury recovery based on load monitoring with (global position system) to control progression and risk of reinjury. On the contrary emphasized the opinion of the early return to filed activity that's can increase for the injury player the ability to maintain sports specific skills as much as he can during injury recovery. In the literature review there is a absence of evidence to refer to a specific framework for on field functional rehabilitation in regard of recovery an injured football player (elite or amateur ) on field. References ,with a lack of evidence ,exist only in some specific rehabilitation protocols such as muscle injury rehabilitation tendons injuries management or Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction rehabilitation as the late phase of injury recovery.Only one study, present on field functional rehabilitation framework of 5 stages based on traditional rehabilitation for short and long term injuries based on load monitoring through global position system ,as a work based on experience and lacking of evidence. Aim The overall objective of the proposed research is to conduct a prospective randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of ''On FI.RE. framework'' (on filed rehabilitation framework),namely the early return to on field activities during an injury recovery. Included a specific 5 stages program-framework , and a daily session planning framework for on field functional rehabilitation. The effectiveness will evaluated with the time that the player needed to return to full participation in teams training.
This study aims to precisely describe epidemiology of injuries than occur during practice of climbing in artificial structure. Each participant will complete questionnaires in order to identify injuries. The first questionnaire will be completed at the moment of the inclusion and the second questionnaire will be completed if participant has injuries every 3 months until month 12.
For more than a decade, worldwide participation in ultra-marathons and ultra-trails (running races longer than the 42.195 km marathon) has been increasing. Although considered benign, blisters are a common problem, with serious consequences and limiting performance. Although blisters are a major factor limiting endurance performance, they are a reason for only 5.8% of ultra-trail runners to quit. While equipment is improving and participants are increasing and intensifying their training, there is no consensus on the prevention of blisters in ultra-trail running, even though it is the number one factor limiting sports performance. There are few prospective interventional studies on the prevention of blisters during outdoor activities. On many running forums, there is the hypothesis that lemon applied to the feet prevents the appearance of blisters. This hypothesis has never been scientifically studied. The investigators hypothesize that the local application of Lemon allows a reduction in the number of blisters on ultra-trail. The objective of this Blisters-stop 2 study is to evaluate the efficacy of local application of Lemon in preventing the appearance of blisters.
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE : To evaluate the methods of prevention of the appearance of blisters set up by the runners before and during an ultra-trail SECONDARY OBJECTIVES : To evaluate : - The main locations of blisters. - The severity of blisters - The effectiveness of prevention methods To evaluate the incidence of blisters in an ultra-trail context.
