About this study

Official title: Efectos de la Fatiga en el Rendimiento físico en el Ejercicio de Sentadillas

All the athletes should perform a warm-up consisting of five minutes of jogging and static stretching (Experimental Group 1) or dynamic stretching (Experimental Group 2). Before the beginning of the study and right after performing the stretching protocol, the investigators evaluated the unipedal postural stability, the acustic reaction time, the joint position sense of the knee and the countermovement jump of the athletes.

Being tested
Static Stretching, Dynamic Stretching
Keywords
proprioception, countermovement jump, postural balance

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Static StretchingProcedure or surgery

    To analyze the immediate effects of static stretching on performance of sprinters

  • Dynamic StretchingProcedure or surgery

    To analyze the immediate effects of dynamic stretching on performance of sprinters

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in the unipedal postural balance of athletes

    Monopodal postural stability (15 seconds as still as possible on a baropodometric platform in left-leg and right-leg monopodal support)

    Measured: baseline and 15 minutes

  2. Change in counter-movement jump of athletes

    A maximum vertical jump with counter-movement.

    Measured: baseline and 17 minutes

  3. Change in Joint Position Sense of the knee of athletes

    Acuity of repositioining a previous position of the knee joint

    Measured: baseline and 20 minutes

  4. Change in Acustic Reaction Time of athletes

    Time spent to rise the dominant leg after an acustic signal

    Measured: baseline and 22 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Static Stretching and Dynamic Stretching in people with Postural Stability, run by Universidad Católica San Antonio de Murcia at 1 site in Spain.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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 19 Mar 2015. 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 Spain. 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 the unipedal postural balance of athletes (time frame: baseline and 15 minutes). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 19 Mar 2015.
