Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The aim of this study was to (a) compare the scapular kinematics of asymptomatic swimmers and healthy non-athletes and to (b) compare the scapular kinematics of the dominant and non-dominant shoulders in asymptomatic young swimmers.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase

    Detailed Description

    This cross-sectional study included 27 volunteered asymptomatic young swimmers (mean age:

    12.7 yrs) with at least 3 years of experience in a professional swimming club and 22 healthy non-athletes (mean age: 11.5 yrs). 3D scapular kinematics were evaluated at 0°, 30º, 60º, 90º, and 120º with the electromagnetic tracking system during bilateral arm elevation and lowering on the scapular plane. The differences in the scapular kinematics of the dominant and the non-dominant side in both groups were analyzed with 2 by 8 Mixed Model ANOVA.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Scapular Kinematic [one year]

      3D scapular kinematics were evaluated at 0°, 30º, 60º, 90º, and 120º with the electromagnetic tracking system during bilateral arm elevation and lowering on the scapular plane. The differences in the scapular kinematics of the dominant and the non-dominant side in both groups were analyzed with 2 by 8 Mixed Model ANOVA.
