Brief Summary

Purpose: The physical, physiological, and functional characteristics of archers affect target shooting performance. In our study, we aimed to examine the effect of pulmonary functions and respiratory muscle strength on sports performance in archers. Methods: Our study included 46 (27 female, 19 male) professional archers registered in archery sports clubs. Sociodemographic and physical characteristics were recorded. Pulmonary function test (PFT), respiratory muscle strength, shooting performance test, Moberg-pickup collection test, Nelson hand reaction test, and Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS) were applied to all participants.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (11)

• FEV1 (liter)

  This is the amount of air with pulmonary function test that the patient can force out of their lungs in one second.

  at the enrollment

• FEV1 (%-percentage)

  This is the percentage of air with pulmonary function test that the patient can force out of their lungs in one second.

  at the enrollment

• FVC (liter)

  This is the greatest total amount of air patient can forcefully breathe out after breathing in as deeply as possible.

  at the enrollment

• FVC (%-percentage)

  This is the percentage of air patient can forcefully breathe out after breathing in as deeply as possible.

  7 months

• FEV1/FVC (percentage)

  The FEV1/FVC ratio is a number that represents the percentage of patient lung capacity patient is able to exhale in one second.

  at the enrollment

• Inspiratory muscle test

  Maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) is going to measured using a mouth pressure meter (MicroRPM; MicroMedical, UK) according to the guideline of ATS and European Respiratory Society (ERS).

  at the enrollment

• Expiratory muscle test

  Maximal expiratory pressure (MEP) is going to measured using a mouth pressure meter (MicroRPM; MicroMedical, UK) according to the guideline of ATS and European Respiratory Society (ERS).

  at the enrollment

• Shooting performance

  The high shooting score indicates high arrow shooting performance.

  at the enrollment

• Nelson Hand Reaction Test

  The average value when the participants catch the ruler for three attempts

  at the enrollment

• Moberg-pickup collection test

  Assess manual dexterity and function by measuring the time it takes to pick up twelve different small objects (screws, paper clips, rings, safety pins, small nuts, coins, and wrenches)

  at the enrollment

• The Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS)

  Assess fatigue severity with 9-item self reporting scale
