• Study Type: observational
• Target: 20

Brief Summary

A volleyball player with high respiratory muscle endurance can perform at a high level of efficiency during competitions without experiencing fatigue. However, no study has been found in the literature examining respiratory muscle strength, respiratory muscle endurance, cough strength and balance parameters in adolescent volleyball players which was therefore aimed to investigate the potential relationship between these parameters in this study.

Conditions

Adolescent Behavior; Athletic Injuries

Keywords

adolescent; volleyball; respiratory muscle; cough; balance

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Respiratory muscle strength assessment

  Respiratory muscle strength will be measured using a portable spirometer. The pressure will be recorded during a few seconds of maximal inspiration (Müller maneuver) or expiration (Valsalva maneuver) through the mouth.The high value obtained indicates good muscle strength.

  through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• Respiratory muscle endurance assessment

  through study completion, an average of 1 year

• Evaluation of Cough Strength

  through study completion, an average of 1 year

• Balance Assessment

  through study completion, an average of 1 year
