About this study

This study was planned to explain the relationship between heart rate variability and their sportive performance in basketball players.

Read the detailed description

Basketball is a team sport that develops physical characteristics such as endurance, strength, speed, skill and mobility, starting from childhood or youth and bringing these characteristics to a superior level in adulthood.

The heart rate variability is the period in which the change between two heartbeats is observed and represents the sinus node modulation by the sympathetic and parasympathetic branches of the autonomic nervous system. During exercise, the increase in intensity produces a higher heart rate and a lower heart rate variation due to the increase in sympathetic nerve activity and decreased vagal modulation in the heart. Heart rate variation is measured by the variation in heart rate from beat to beat and the time between each heartbeat. Measurement of heart rate variability is a potentially valuable noninvasive tool as it is a reliable marker of the autonomic nervous system's effect on the heart.

When the literature is examined, although there are studies on the effects of heart rate variation in both basketball and different sports branches, there is no study examining the relationship between heart rate variation and basketball-specific sportive performance. Therefore, it is aimed to study on this subject and to contribute to the literature.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Measurement of heart rate variability in people with Heart Rate Variability and Athletic Performance, run by Ankara Yildirim Beyazıt University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Aug 2021. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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 Rabia Tugba Kilic (+905303642866, rtugbakilic@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Heart rate variability (time frame: 5 months). 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 NCT04779034, which also lists 3 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Aug 2021.
