Study Description

Brief Summary:

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.

Detailed Description:

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

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures :

Functional Movement Screen Assessment (FMS) [ Time Frame: 20 minutes ]
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).

Secondary Outcome Measures :

Vertical Jump Test [ Time Frame: 5 minutes ]
Inches, Higher scores are better.
Y Balance Test [ Time Frame: 10 minutes ]
Functional Reach Measurement, higher scores are better.
Illinois Agility Test [ Time Frame: 2 minutes ]
Agility Measurement, Lower scores are better.
