NCT06126458

Brief Summary

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of stabilization and stabilization-related parameters on shooting performance at the cervical, lumbal and scapular levels in archery athletes. A total of 40 archery athletes aged between 10 and 18, who have been professionally engaged in archery for at least 1 year were included in the study. Demographic information and musculoskeletal system evaluations of the athletes were done. Performance of the athletes via Upper Extremity Closed Kinetic Chain Stability Test, Hand Grip Strength test; presence of scapular dyskinesia was evaluated via the Lateral Scapular Slide Test. Cervical region stabilization was evaluated via Craniocervical Flexion Test, scapular level stabilization was evaluated via Scapular Muscle Endurance Test, lumbar region stabilization was evaluated via Abdominal Drawing-in Test and Sahrmann's Core Stability Test. As the parameters related to stabilization, postures via Corbin Postural Rating Scale; balances via Stork Balance Test, Upper Extremity Y Balance Test; pain was evaluated via the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index. Shooting performances were evaluated with 72 target shootings and a total of 720 points. .

Primary Outcomes (6)

  • cervical stabilization

    cervical stabilization assess with craniocervical flexion test.

    baseline

  • lumbar stabilization grade

    lumbar stabilization asses with sahrmann's core stability test and will grade according to test outcome.

    baseline

  • lumbar stabilizator muscle contraction

    the athlete perform abdominal drawing in meneuver and contraction amount record.

    baseline

  • scapular dyskinesis type

    Kibler's scapular diskinesis test and lateral scapular slide test

    baseline

  • scapular dyskinesis amount

    lateral scapular slide test
