Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Basketball is an impact, coordination-opposition sport with continuous contact among players and it is considered a sport of medium-high injury incidence. Players are force to have a physical condition appropriate to their practice and the demand to which they must respond due to the intensity of the efforts this sport requires. In order to achieve this, it is necessary to establish an evaluation protocol that allows the detection of functional deficiencies, to guide and conduct in a specific and early way every moment of players' health and growth.

The purpose of this study is to design, apply and analyze the effectiveness of a specific and individualized therapeutic exercise program (Basketball Pre-injury Attack) based on the approach of the functional deficiencies detected by the Basketball Injury Defense, to reduce the susceptibility to injury of youth basketball players (U14 - U17).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The aim of this study is to design, apply and analyze the effectiveness of a specific and individualized therapeutic exercise program (Basketball Pre-injury Attack) based on the approach of functional deficiencies detected by the Basketball Injury Defense, to reduce the susceptibility to injury of training federated basketball players.

The specific objectives are:

To improve the deficiencies detected in mobility, stability, symmetry and jumping/landing technique of basketball players in training categories (U14, U16 and U17).

To structure and determine the contents of a specific and individualized therapeutic exercise program (Basketball Preinjury Attack) designed to improve the functional deficiencies of mobility, stability, symmetry and jumping/landing technique of training basketball players based on current scientific evidence.

To analyze whether adherence to the program is achieved by raising players' awareness of the importance and benefits of performing the exercises with correct technique.

To assess whether a decrease in the susceptibility to injury of training federated basketball players is achieved.

For this purpose, an experimental study was conducted as a single-blind, randomized, cluster-controlled clinical trial during the months of June 2019 to February 2020 (9 months). For the development of the methodology of this study, the guidelines of the CONSORT (Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials) Statement were followed.

SINGLE

Investigators
The study was blinded to the investigators who performed both recruitment and assessments. In this way, detection bias could be controlled. It was not possible to perform a double-blind study, since it was a physical intervention and the player knew that he/she was undergoing an intervention program.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Basketball pre-injury attack program

The intervention group carried out a program for 24 weeks. The participant had to perform the program 3 days per week for 12-15' each day (training days with the team, prior to group activation).

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Basketball Pre-injury Attack program

Intervention Type OTHER

The intervention had a total duration of 24 weeks, with 3 sessions per week (before starting training) with a total duration of 12 to 15 minutes per session. Each session consisted of 8 exercises with a load of 2 to 3 series between 6 and 12 repetitions; and with a rest at the end of each series of \<60 seconds.

Control

The control group performed only the initial, follow-up (12 weeks) and final (24 weeks) evaluations.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION
