About this study
Official title: Validity and Reliability of the Modified Athletic Shoulder Test
The objective of the study is the validate and to assess the reliability of a modified version of the Athetic Shoulder Test. The activity of peri-scapular muscles during the realization of the test will be assessed too.
Read the detailed description
The study will be divided into two sessions. A time of 7-10 days will be provided between the two sessions of tests to limit the influence of sport and training on the results.
Session 1:
- Warm-up
- Realization of the Athletic Shoulder Test (with EMG captors on upper trapezius, lower trapezius and serratus anterior)
- Realization of the modified Athletic Shoulder Test (with EMG captors on upper trapezius, lower trapezius and serratus anterior)
Session 2:
- Warm-up
- Realization of the Athletic Shoulder Test (with EMG captors on upper trapezius, lower trapezius and serratus anterior)
- Realization of the modified Athletic Shoulder Test (with EMG captors on upper trapezius, lower trapezius and serratus anterior)
- Conditions
- Strength
- Being tested
- Realization of the Athletic Shoulder Test and the Modified Athletic Shoulder Test

The participants will have to perform both tests two times, with a 7-10 days rest period between the two sessions
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Strength of anteflexors in "I" position
The strength developped in the "I" position will be assessed with a force plateform and a handheld dynamometer
Measured: Change from baseline to 10 days
Strength of anteflexors in "Y" position
The strength developped in the "Y" position will be assessed with a force plateform and a handheld dynamometer
Measured: Change from baseline to 10 days
Strength of anteflexors in "T" position
The strength developped in "T" position will be assessed with a force plateform and a handheld dynamometer
Measured: Change from baseline to 10 days
EMG activity of upper trapezius
EMG activity of upper trapezius will be measured with surface electrodes (Delsys Trigno)
Measured: during the first session
EMG activity of lower trapezius
EMG activity of lower trapezius will be measured with surface electrodes (Delsys Trigno)
Measured: during the first session
EMG activity of serratus anterior
EMG activity of serratus anterior will be measured with surface electrodes (Delsys Trigno)
Measured: during the first session

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Strength, run by University of Liege at 1 site in Belgium.
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 17 May 2022. 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 Belgium. 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?
Strength of anteflexors in "I" position (time frame: Change from baseline to 10 days). The study lists 6 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 17 May 2022.
