    Association between Injury History and Performance of Male Elite Ice Hockey Players
    (2020) Balci, Nilay Comuk; Akbasli, Oguzhan; Dogan, Ilknur Ezgi; Kara, Ozgun Kaya
    The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between past injuries and the on-ice and off-ice performance of elite male ice hockey players. This study included participation of 50 elite male ice hockey players (age 23.8 +/- 5.3 years). Off-ice performance was measured by 30m Sprint Test, Broad Jump Test, Push-up Test, Hexagon Agility Test, and Plank Test, while on-ice performance was measured by 30m On-ice Sprint Test and Cornering "S" Turn Agility Test. Examination of the athletes' history of injury included their previous injury site, type, number and mechanism of injuries. In the push-up test, there was a significant difference between the athletes who had left hand and right knee injuries and those who had a dislocation injury (p <0.05). A statistically significant difference was determined between athletes who had a puck injury and who had not according to their performance on the cornering s turn agility test results( p <0.05). A statistically significant difference was also found between athletes who had an overuse injury and who had not according to their performance on the 30m sprint and hexagon agility test results(p <0.05). Lastly, there was a significant correlation between on-ice tests and off-ice broad jump, push-up and plank tests (r=-0.310-0.540; p<0.05).This study demonstrates that the push-up test could be the most effective test for determining level of performance after an athlete has suffered an injury. Furthermore, on-ice test results were shown to have a correlation with off-ice plank test results, which could bean indicator of an athlete's core muscle strength following an injury.

    Acute effect of scapular proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) techniques and classic exercises in adhesive capsulitis: a randomized controlled trial
    (2016) Balci, Nilay Comuk; Yuruk, Zeliha Ozlem; Zeybek, Aslican; Gulsen, Mustafa; Tekindal, Mustafa Agah; 27190456
    [Purpose] The aim of our study was to compare the initial effects of scapular proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation techniques and classic exercise interventions with physiotherapy modalities on pain, scapular dyskinesis, range of motion, and function in adhesive capsulitis. [Subjects and Methods] Fifty-three subjects were allocated to 3 groups: scapular proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation exercies and physiotherapy modalities, classic exercise and physiotherapy modalities, and only physiotherapy modalities. The intervention was applied in a single session. The Visual Analog Scale, Lateral Scapular Slide Test, range of motion and Simple Shoulder Test were evaluated before and just after the one-hour intervention in the same session (all in one session). [Results] All of the groups showed significant differences in shoulder flexion and abduction range of motion and Simple Shoulder Test scores. There were statistically significant differences in Visual Analog Scale scores in the proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation and control groups, and no treatment method had significant effect on the Lateral Scapular Slide Test results. There were no statistically significant differences between the groups before and after the intervention. [Conclusion] Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation, classic exercise, and physiotherapy modalities had immediate effects on adhesive capsulitis in our study. However, there was no additional benefit of exercises in one session over physiotherapy modalities. Also, an effective treatment regimen for shoulder rehabilitation of adhesive capsulitis patients should include scapular exercises.
