About this study
Official title: Efficacy of Visual Training in Beach Tennis - a Pilot Study
The proposed protocol is going to study the importance of wide spread of visual functions defined by but not limited to visual perception, visual function, visual exploration, involved in the performance of beach tennis. The investigators intend to examine the basic and important visual function that are required for the better performance in the field. The aim is to assess the efficacy of general training that uses the visual channel as the main one. The investigators suspects the improvement in the visual and motor skills after a predefined 8 weeks of visual training.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Visual trainingOther
Pre-defined visual training protocol including the optometrical unit exercises
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Visual training | Experimental | Pre-specidied visual training methods that use: the Marsden ball, tables that uses green-red visual stimuli, physical reation in response to the visual stimuli that uses the flippers or the preselected distances.
One set of exercises per week was prepared.
Each visual training will last for 15 minutes and should be performed by the participant in their home (using the telemedicine devices to control the conduction of each exercise) 3 times a week. Receives: Other: Visual training |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Optomechanical reaction time
The reaction time between the visual stimulus and the motor reaction
Measured: 8 weeks
Secondary outcomes (3)
Static visual acuity
Best-corrected visual acuity in static conditions expressed in logMAR
Measured: 8 weeks
Dynamic visual acuity
Best-corrected visual acuity in dynamic conditions expressed in logMAR
Measured: 8 weeks
Overall performance during sparing match
Overall performance of the player during the supervised match [percentage of properly conducted series of moves specific to rocket sports]
Measured: 8 weeks

Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Feb 2023. 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 Poland. 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?
Results are not available in the source record.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Joanna Przeździecka-Dołyk, PhD (605693022 ext. +48, joanna.przezdziecka-dolyk@pwr.edu.pl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Optomechanical reaction time (time frame: 8 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 24 Feb 2023.
