About this study
Official title: Effect of a Resistance Training Program on the Jump Landing Biomechanics of Young Female Athletes
The purpose of this study is to determine if jump landing mechanics in young female athletes can be improved with a resistance training intervention.
Read the detailed description
After initial baseline testing, athletes were randomly selected to receive upper body (control group) or lower body (intervention group) resistance training. Athletes attended supervised training sessions twice per week for 12 weeks, after which they were re-tested.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Leg training and Arm training in people with Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury, run by University of Manitoba at 1 site in Canada.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jan 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Change in Landing Error Scoring System score from Baseline to 12 weeks. (time frame: Baseline and 12 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Jan 2014.
