Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The objective of the study is the validate and to assess the reliability of a modified version of the Athetic Shoulder Test. The activity of peri-scapular muscles during the realization of the test will be assessed too.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Other: Realization of the Athletic Shoulder Test and the Modified Athletic Shoulder Test

Detailed Description

The study will be divided into two sessions. A time of 7-10 days will be provided between the two sessions of tests to limit the influence of sport and training on the results.

Session 1:
  • Warm-up

  • Realization of the Athletic Shoulder Test (with EMG captors on upper trapezius, lower trapezius and serratus anterior)

  • Realization of the modified Athletic Shoulder Test (with EMG captors on upper trapezius, lower trapezius and serratus anterior)

Session 2:
  • Warm-up

  • Realization of the Athletic Shoulder Test (with EMG captors on upper trapezius, lower trapezius and serratus anterior)

  • Realization of the modified Athletic Shoulder Test (with EMG captors on upper trapezius, lower trapezius and serratus anterior)

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Strength of anteflexors in "I" position [Change from baseline to 10 days]

    The strength developped in the "I" position will be assessed with a force plateform and a handheld dynamometer

  2. Strength of anteflexors in "Y" position [Change from baseline to 10 days]

    The strength developped in the "Y" position will be assessed with a force plateform and a handheld dynamometer

  3. Strength of anteflexors in "T" position [Change from baseline to 10 days]

    The strength developped in "T" position will be assessed with a force plateform and a handheld dynamometer

  4. EMG activity of upper trapezius [during the first session]

    EMG activity of upper trapezius will be measured with surface electrodes (Delsys Trigno)

  5. EMG activity of lower trapezius [during the first session]

    EMG activity of lower trapezius will be measured with surface electrodes (Delsys Trigno)

  6. EMG activity of serratus anterior [during the first session]

    EMG activity of serratus anterior will be measured with surface electrodes (Delsys Trigno)
