About this study

Official title: Relationship of Functional Movement Analysis With Injury History and Athletic Parameters In Handball Athletes

RELATIONSHIP OF FUNCTIONAL MOVEMENT ANALYSIS WITH INJURY HISTORY AND ATHLETIC PARAMETERS IN HANDBALL ATHLETES

Abstract Objectives: Handball is a popular sport in many countries. There is lack of knowledge about handball athlete's functional movement capacity. The aim of this study is to investigate the Functional Movement Screen (FMS™) scores, to evaluate the injury risks of handball athletes and to determine its relationship with athletic performance.

Design: Observational study. Methods: A total of 51 professional handball players in Turkey were included in this study. The sport-specific features and demographic data were recorded. The functional movement analysis was performed and agility and balance and force were evaluated.

In august 2018, same evaluations will be done for same individuals.

What is being measured

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

  1. Functional Movement Screen Assessment (FMS)

    0-21 (It has 7 subtests, and minimum 0 and maximum 3 is given for scoring.) Higher scores are better. For bilateral subtests, scoring is performed for both sides, and scoring is given according to lower side. ( Example; Right 2, Left 1 so 1 point score is given for that parameter. At last, all 7 scores summed for total score(0/21).

    Measured: 20 minutes

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Vertical Jump Test

    Inches, Higher scores are better.

    Measured: 5 minutes

  2. Y Balance Test

    Functional Reach Measurement, higher scores are better.

    Measured: 10 minutes

  3. Illinois Agility Test

    Agility Measurement, Lower scores are better.

    Measured: 2 minutes

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?

Functional Movement Screen Assessment (FMS) (time frame: 20 minutes). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03468569, which also lists 7 linked publications.

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?
