AN ATTEMPT TO ASSESS THE DEPENDENCE BETWEEN MOBILITY RANGE AND THE RESPIRATORY PHASE
Journal Title: Medycyna Sportowa - Year 2014, Vol 30, Issue 1
Abstract
[b]Background.[/b] The aim of the experiment is an attempt to assess possible differences in the range of movements in the glenohumeral joint depending on the respiratory phase. The respiratory process involves the activity of the muscles which at the same time participate in movements of the peripheral joints. Showing the relationship between the range of movement and the respiratory phase can significantly affect the effectiveness of physio-therapeutic procedures or results in sport.[b]Material and methods.[/b] The participants were subjected to the examination involving assessment of the range of internal rotation in the glenohumeral joint of the right and left upper limb. For each subject, the examination was carried out thrice in the following set quence: measurement at rest, measurement during peak inspiration and measurement after peak expiration.[b]Results. [/b]The analysis showed statistically significant differences between the results of the measurements performed at rest and during peak inspiration.The values recorded during peak inspiration were higher than those noted during the measurement at rest, both of the right and the left upper limb.[b]Conclusions.[/b] The obtained results suggest dependence between the range of movement of internal rotation in the humeral joint and the respiratory cycle phase.
