Download or read book The Effects of Functional Knee Bracing on Physical Performance in Female Athletes Post Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction During Return to Sport written by Briana Boulerice and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Background: Functional knee braces are commonly prescribed to patients after anterior cruciateligament reconstruction (ACLR) surgery to reduce anterior translation of the tibia and providestability to the knee. The purpose of this literature review is to determine if functional kneebracing affects physical performance in high-impact athletes.Method: A comprehensive literature review conducted using Medline Complete, CINAHL, Cochrane Systematic Reviews, Cochrane Control Trials, SPORTDiscus, Rehab and Sports Medicine, PEDro, PTNow/apta.org, Google Scholar, ClinicalTrials.gov, and NIH. Inclusion criteria required publication after 2010, history of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear, reconstruction using bone-to-bone patellar tendon autograft (BTBPA), and subject pool of highimpact athletes ages 19-25. Non-English literature and studies examining immobilizer or postsurgical bracing were excluded. Articles were critically appraised for internal and external validity.Results: Five studies met the inclusion criteria, including 3 intervention studies, and 2 systematic reviews. Functional knee bracing increased hop distance symmetry and peak impact performance symmetry. No impact on joint position sense, the modified agility test (MAT), the vertical jump test or quadriceps function was found.Discussion/Conclusion: Prescribing functional knee braces to athletes does not have an effect on physical performance during return to sport. Prescription of a functional knee brace (FKB) also increases healthcare cost. Limitations include underrepresentation of female high-impact athletes, lack of a universal definition of functional knee bracing, and poor homogeneity of graft type. Lastly, bracing may have a positive impact on athlete confidence in the return to sport period.
Download or read book The Acute Effects of Dynamic and Ballistic Stretching on Vertical Jump Height Force and Power written by Jason Reed Jaggers and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to compare the differences between 2 sets of ballistic stretching and 2 sets of a dynamic stretching routine on vertical jump performance. The intraclass reliability coefficients for maximum jump height, force, and power were also assessed using the Kistler Quattro Jump ® force plate. Methods. Ten healthy male college students, ages 22 to 34 years, volunteered to participate in this study. All subjects completed three individual testing sessions on three non-consecutive days. On each day the subjects completed one of three treatments (no stretch, ballistic stretch, and dynamic stretch). A paired samples t-test was used to test the effects of ballistic and dynamic stretching, respectively, on jumping height, force, and power performance scores. Hoyt's analysis of variance model, (MSs-MSi)/MSs, was used to estimate the reliability coefficients on jumping performance scores across three different trials. Results. A paired samples t-test documented that there were no statistical differences in jumping height, force, or power between no stretch and ballistic stretch, and between no stretch and dynamic stretch. The intraclass reliability coefficients were >.99 for jumping height, >0.94 for jumping force, and >.99 for jumping power. Conclusion. Both ballistic and dynamic stretching showed nonsignificant effects on vertical jumping performance in college male students, but the reliability coefficients were very high to measure jumping height, force, and power using the Kistler Quattro Jump ® force plate.

This book was released on 2020 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: The present study was designed to investigate the acute effects of an ascending intensity eccentric Safety Squat Bar (SSB) squat protocol on vertical jump performance. After the maximal strength test by using SSB, twenty trained male students were recruited for two experimental sessions: squat condition (SC) and control condition (CC). In SC, an ascending intensity squat protocol, which combined 40% 1 RM, 60% 1 RM, 80% 1 RM, 100% 1 RM, 120% 1 RM separated eccentric SSB squat, was performed with a three-minute rest interval after warm-up. The vertical jump height was measured at the baseline, after warm-up, and after each SSB eccentric squat. In CC, subjects were asked to seat after warm-up. The vertical jump height was measured at the same time point as SC. A significant difference of vertical jump height was observed after 60% 1 RM eccentric SSB squat (p = .031), after 80% 1 RM eccentric SSB squat (p

Download or read book Sports Injuries written by Mahmut Nedim Doral and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-12-10 with total page 1155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, research studies into sports injuries have provided healthcare professionals with a better understanding of their etiology and natural history. On this basis, novel concepts in the diagnosis and management of these conditions are now being explored. This timely book offers a complete guide to the latest knowledge on the diagnosis and treatment of the full range of possible sports injuries. Individual sections are devoted to biomechanics, injury prevention, and the still emerging treatment role of growth factors, which foster more rapid tissue healing. Sports injuries of each body region are then examined in detail, with special attention to diagnostic issues and the most modern treatment techniques. In addition, pediatric sports injuries, extreme sports injuries, the role of physiotherapy, and future developments are extensively discussed. All who are involved in the care of patients with sports injuries will find this textbook to be an invaluable, comprehensive, and up-to-date reference.

Download or read book Testing and Evaluation of Strength and Power written by Mike McGuigan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-12-09 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strength and power are recognised as key components of human health and performance. Therefore, it is vital for exercise scientists and strength and conditioning practitioners to be able to assess these qualities effectively. Testing methods of these components are often presented as standalone chapters in textbooks which provides the reader with an overview of these aspects. Testing and Evaluation of Strength and Power provides a detailed explanation of testing and evaluation methods for strength and power. The book considers the relationship between the methods of assessment, research on the various approaches to evaluation and how practitioners and researchers can use the information in applied settings. The book provides the reader with a comprehensive overview of methods of strength and power assessment protocols and how they can be used to inform programming. This integrated approach to assessment of strength and power is recommended reading for students on strength and conditioning course and of vital reading to those on specialised courses on strength and power as well as coaches in the fitness testing and strength and conditioning disciplines.
