Filter by:The investigators analyzed the strain of the rotator cuff tendon of baseball pitchers obtained using ultrasonography and compared the change in peak tendon strain before and after the regular season.
Scapular dyskinesis (SD) is common in overhead athletes and negatively influence the athletes' performance, increasing the risk of shoulder injury. The kinetic chain (KC) exercises for SD rehabilitation that emphasize importance of core strength and scapula stability during skillful performance. Ai Chi, the aquatic exercises performed in functional positions, which are adequate for power transfer of KC. This study will investigate the effect of KC-based water exercises, Ai Chi, on scapular muscles in overhead athletes with SD.
Overuse injuries are common among competitive Norwegian rhythmic gymnasts with a mean weekly prevalence of 37% [95% CI: 36 - 39%] and incidence of 4.2 new overuse injuries [95% CI: 3.6 - 4.9] per gymnast per year (Gram, M., Clarsen, B., & Bø, K., 2021). The knees, lower back and hip/groin were the most common injury locations. It has been postulated that reduced physical capacity (e.g strength, flexibility, stability) in the knees, lower back and hip/groin can increase the risk of injuries in rhythmic gymnastics. In addition, more than 30% of the Norwegian rhythmic gymnasts experience urinary incontinence (UI), and 70% reported that UI negatively affected sports performance (Gram, M., & Bø, K., 2020). Few of the rhythmic gymnasts had any knowledge about the pelvic floor. Hence, this assessor blinded cluster randomized controlled trial aims to find out whether the implementation of exercises targeting reduced physical capacity and pelvic floor dysfunction can prevent/reduce the prevalence of overuse injuries and UI.
Sports activity represents part of day living people, a knee pain originated by high demand joint activity could represent a limitation to continue sports. The aim of this clinical trial is demonstrate the effects of hyaluronic acid in sportsmen with knee pain.
The specific aims of this study are to: - describe how many heel raises and side hops TG athletes of various ages can perform and how far they can jump, one leg at a time. - examine how calf muscle endurance and hop performance are related to the risk of new injuries in the foot, ankle, and lower leg in TG athletes. The investigators hypothesise that atletes with superior performance in the tests for muscular endurance and hop performance will report fewer injuries during the follow up period.
This study will be the first project to evaluate the effectiveness of wearable technology (Garmin Forerunner35) while performing gait retraining in field on military members. The watch will provide real time feedback to the runner on their step rate while performing running sessions outside of the lab. This allows the runner to modify their step rate to meet a recommended step rate provided by the study team member. Aim 1: To demonstrate the utility of wearable sensors to modify running step rate through real time biofeedback. Aim 2: To determine whether altering step rate using real time biofeedback reduces lower extremity musculoskeletal injury reoccurrence within 1 year post training.
The primary objective of this study is to collect motion-capture data on movements common to baseball play in order to develop an algorithm for a wearable device for the prevention and rehabilitation of sports-related overuse injuries. Secondary objectives include evaluating the feasibility of wearing the throwing device during simulated baseball play.
The proposed study will investigate the effect of alternating footwear model and workout-type on the occurrence of running-related pain. To achieve this goal participants will be randomly assigned into one of four different groups who will perform: 1) the same workout throughout a week in the same running shoe model, 2) alternating workout-types throughout the week in the same shoe model, 3) the same workout throughout a week in alternating shoe models, and 4) alternating workouts in alternating shoes. Participants will be characterized based on body alignment, strength, injury and training history. Pain and injury status will be monitored.
The purpose of this study is to look at the effect of strength training in preventing overuse injuries in female runners
The aim of this study is to assess the relationship between the presence of overuse injuries and failure to control of movement in those areas. For this, participants will perform some tests related to movement dysfunction lumbar-pelvic area to check for faults in one or more movement planes.
