Filter by:A qualitative study, as a follow-up to an earlier study, that provides an opportunity to develop a deeper understanding of the injured cyclist's behavior related to seeking medical attention and endurance of pain. This study includes 10 club-level cyclists who have an injury and either have or have not sought medical attention.
The purpose of this research project is to evaluate the effectiveness of an injury prevention intervention for collegiate soccer players.
The primary objective of the pilot study is to assess the feasibility of a definitive trial to determine the effect of arthroscopic capsuloligamentous repair (Bankart + Remplissage) vs. coracoid transfer (Latarjet procedure) on recurrent dislocation rates and functional outcomes over a 24-month period.
The aim of the present study is to establish the injury incidence, severity and burden typically observed within Scottish professional football clubs. In line with the well-established model of sports injury prevention research proffered by van Mechelen, the first stage in this process is establishing the extent of the problem i.e. injury incidence, severity and burden. Such a multi-club study has never been conducted within Scotland despite a thriving professional game.
The main aim of this study is to describe differences in development of health and motor performance over time in relation to type of school and other background variables.
This study tests the hypothesis that the combination of radial extracorporeal shock wave therapy performed with the Swiss DolorClast device (Electro Medical Systems, Nyon, Switzerland) and a specific rehabilitation program (hereafter, "rESWT + RP") is effective and safe in treatment of acute hamstring muscle complex injury Type 3b, and is statistically significantly more effective than the combination of sham-rESWT and RP (hereafter, "sham-rESWT + RP").
The long-term purpose of an on-going participatory action research program "The KLUB-study" in Sweden, that involves scientists and representatives from all levels of athletics, is to develop a sustainable framework for safe athletics (track and field) training for child athletes born 2002-2006. The first part of the research program, a 1-year longitudinal study analysing training and injury data, was completed in November 2017. The present study sets out to evaluate a website that aims to support coaches and caregivers in their role as adult key stakeholders to foster young athletes to become adult athletes who possess the tools to maintain a healthy sporting lifestyle.
The study will investigate the effect of structural training program and body composition on injury occurrence in hip-hop dance. Assuming that training program can significantly lower the number of injuries (experimental group will have less injuries during and at the end of the trial) and that body fat percentage negatively effects injury occurrence (dancers with higher body fat percentage will be more often injured).
The main objective of this study is to find a correlation between vitamin D deficiency and stress fracture occurrences in athletes who participate in high-risk activities. These high-risk athletes undergo elevated bone turnover, which requires adequate levels of vitamin D in order to support bone health. It is hypothesized that providing supplemental treatment to athletes showing lower than normal serum vitamin D levels will decrease the occurrence of stress fractures. By recording the dates and specific occurrences of fractures, it may be possible to correlate injury rates with seasons, providing more supportive data to pre-existing literature. This area of research is lacking in the quantity of prospective studies. Previous studies primarily focus on adolescent, elder, or military recruit populations. While literature has shown that vitamin D plays an important role in bone health, there are no previous studies that directly examine vitamin D deficiency and supplemental treatment in conditioned collegiate athlete populations. This study will add to the existing knowledge and will provide a more specific analysis for athletes.
The aim of the study is to determine the efficacy of an Amniotic Fluid Tissue Product for pain relief and functional improvements for all types of musculoskeletal conditions. The study is prospective, with outcome measures being obtained at numerous time points after the regenerative procedure.
