NCT ID: NCT04668729 Completed - Athletic Injuries Clinical Trials

Effects of Lumbosacral Chiropractic on the Olympic Style Weightlifting Athletes

Start date: December 6, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

It is known that low back injuries experienced by weightlifting athletes cause a decrease in performance. The effects of spinal manipulative therapy, which has been found to positively affect performance in various sports, are not known in the Olympic style weightlifting athletes. This study is aimed to investigate the effects of lumbosacral chiropractic spinal manipulative therapy on muscle strength, range of motion, balance, and pain in Olympic style weightlifting athletes. In this research, 40 male Olympic style weightlifting athletes are planned to take place. Male athletes will be randomly divided into two groups as a control and a treatment group. To the individuals in the treatment group; lumbal region chiropractic high-speed, low amplitude (High Velocity, Low amplitude: HVLA) spinal manipulation and sacroiliac joint chiropractic HVLA manipulation are planned to perform once a week for a total of three weeks. No manipulation will be made to individuals in the treatment group. Before and after the manipulation; the maximum isometric muscular force, the lumbar spine range of motion, balance performance and pain intensity will be evaluated by a back dynamometer, hand finger-ground distance test (HFGD), and Modified Schober test, flamingo balance test, and visual analog scale. SPPS 25 (IBM Corp. Released 2017. IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 25.0. Armonk, NY: IBM Corp.) version will be used to analyze the data.

NCT ID: NCT04644601 Completed - Ankle Injuries Clinical Trials

Italian Version of The Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool (CAIT)

CAIT-I
Start date: January 7, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Study Design: Evaluation of the psychometric properties of a translated, culturally adapted questionnaire. Objective: Translating, culturally adapting, and validating the Italian version of the Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool (CAIT-I), allowing its use with Italian-speaking population to monitor both state of health and functional limitation deriving from ankle instability problems, in order to evaluate the degree of severity, without using the comparison with the opposite limb. Summary of Background Data: Lateral ankle sprain is the most common injury during sports activity, often cause of disability and of numerous complications following repeated episodes, including chronic ankle instability (CAI), which affects 32% to 74% of the aforementioned cases. Growing attention is devoted to standardized outcome measures to improve interventions for injured population. A translated form of the Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool (CAIT), a simple and specific tool for diagnosing chronic lateral ankle instability with excellent psychometric characteristics of both reliability and validity, has never been validated within the Italian speaking population.

NCT ID: NCT04641520 Completed - Sport Injury Clinical Trials

Shoulder Profile Among Swimmers and Badminton Players

SPASB
Start date: September 1, 2017
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Background: To compare the pre-season clinical measures with shoulder rotator strength and range of motion between bilateral (swimmers) and unilateral (badminton players) overhead athletes. Design: Prospective cohort study Participants: 42 athletes were enrolled including 24 elite badminton players and 18 elite swimmers Independent variables: A pre-season visit consisted in clinical and isokinetic shoulder strength testing. Clinical testing consisted in the shoulder range of motion (ROM) measurements aIsokinetic internal and external rotator shoulder muscles strength was tested at 60. Conventional and functional (eccentric-to-concentric) ratios (FR) were calculated.

NCT ID: NCT04637607 Completed - Sport Injury Clinical Trials

Immediate Effect of Non-invasive Auricular Acupoint Stimulation for the Performance and the Meridian Activities of Archery Athletes

Start date: October 22, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In our hypothesis, auricular acupoint stimulation might improve the attention and heart rate variability in archery athletes. The meridian activities regarding the attention and action in Chinese medicine systems might be influenced.

NCT ID: NCT04592900 Completed - Sport Injury Clinical Trials

Comparing VR and Balance Exercises In Rehabilitation of Adolescent Athletes

Start date: August 1, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Ankle sprains are common injuries in active young people. Most of these injuries recovery quickly on their own, do not require imaging, and do better with early motion and rehabilitation. High ankle sprains and fractures are much less common but more serious. They may require imaging and more treatment.

NCT ID: NCT04589780 Completed - Risk Reduction Clinical Trials

Is There a Relationship Between the Risk of Injury and Posture in Wrestlers?

Start date: October 10, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study was planned to investigate the relationship between the risk of injury and posture in wrestlers. The study will be included male wrestlers. The spine posture and flexibility of the athletes will be measured during standing position with the Idiag M360® brand Spinal Mouse (SM), while the overall body posture will be measured from the anterior and lateral sides using the New York Posture Analysis Method (NYPAM). Injury risks of the athletes will be evaluated by Functional Movement Screen (FMS) which was consisting of seven basic movement patterns.

NCT ID: NCT04536246 Completed - Clinical trials for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Rupture

Comparison of Functional Outcome Between BQT and SBHT ACL Reconstruction

BQTSBHTFMUI
Start date: February 1, 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

ACL rupture has a high morbidity in productive-age population. The increasing incidence and proper management has become a point of interest in the musculoskeletal sport injury. Choosing the best graft has become the main focus in searching for a better outcome regarding ACL reconstruction in these patient population. Currently, single bundle hamstring tendon (SBHT) autograft was preferred in Asian population compared to bone quadriceps tendon (BQT) autograft. However, there are some problems such as smaller size, as well as diameter, of SBHT. This study is focused on evaluation of the clinical outcome between BQT and SBHT in arthroscopic-assisted ACL reconstruction patients.

NCT ID: NCT04504929 Completed - Shoulder Pain Clinical Trials

The Effectiveness of Dynamic Taping in Preventing Muscle Fatigue

Start date: October 1, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of dynamic tape in prevent shoulder muscle fatigue.

NCT ID: NCT04486807 Completed - Sport Injury Clinical Trials

Shoulder Muscle Imbalance as a Risk Factor for Shoulder Injury in Elite Badminton Players

BADEPAULE
Start date: August 5, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Background: To assess the impact of pre-season clinical measures and rotator muscles strength on the risk of significant shoulder injury (SSI) in elite badminton players Design: Prospective cohort study Participants: Nineteen elite adolescents badminton players were included and followed over the badminton season (from september 2018 to may 2019 and/or from september 2019 to may 2020) . Independent variables: A pre-season visit consisted in clinical and isokinetic shoulder strength testing. Clinical testing consisted in the shoulder range of motion (ROM) measurements and the table-to-acromion distance (TAD)Isokinetic internal and external rotator shoulder muscles strength was tested at 60 and 240°/s. Conventional and functional (eccentric-to-concentric) ratios (FR) were calculated. SSI collection was performed by an experienced sport physician.

NCT ID: NCT04485494 Completed - Clinical trials for Traumatic Brain Injury

Blood-based Biomarkers for the Prognosis of Sports Related Concussion

Start date: July 1, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The diagnosis of sports related concussion still relies heavily on a subjective assessment. In this study the investigators want to assess the prognostic value of blood-based biomarkers with recovery from concussive episodes over specific time points post-injury. Our research aims to (1) assess that the World Rugby's head injury assessment (HIA) can identify that a concussion has taken place by measuring specific biomarkers in the blood and (2) to track these biomarkers over time post-injury as a means to assess player health.
