IRCT20190920044826N1 IRCT 2020-01-18 Tehran University of Medical Sciences Evaluation of the effect of tecartherapy on hamstring muscles shortness Comparison of the short-term effect of therapeutic ultrasound and TECAR therapy on hamstring muscle flexibility in healthy athlete men with hamstring shortness: A randomized controlled trial 2019-06-22 anticipated 30 Complete https://irct.ir/trial/42289 interventional Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Single blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Each individual were included in one of the TECAR therapy or ultrasound therapy or static stretching groups by simple randomization method (using the dice throw method). By throwing dice the numbers 1 and 2 fall into group 1 (TECAR therapy), and the numbers 3 and 4 fall into group 2 (ultrasound) and the numbers 5 and 6 fall into group 3 (static stretch), Blinding description: A physiotherapist who performs pre-treatment evaluations, at the end of the first session, and at the end of the third session will not be aware of the type of treatment's group. treatment will be performed by the second physiotherapist. N/A Shortness of Hamstring Muscle. Intervention 1: Intervention Group 1:Tecartherapy with Static stretching: This group will recieve capacitive Tecartherapy for 15 minutes at the frequency of 0.5 MHz and at the intensity of 140 Hz before the static stretch , with the passive electrode plate size 230×170 mm, And the active electrode is 5 cm2 on the hamstring muscle group for 3 sessions in a week every other day.(Details of stretching are provided in control group ). Intervention 2: Intervention group 2: Ultrasound therapy with static stretching: This group will receive continuous ultrasound therapy at a frequency of 1 MHz and at the intensity of 2 W/cm2 and at a speed of 2 cm / s before static stretching (details of stretching in the control group) for 15 minutes on the hamstring muscle group in relax situation for 3 sessions in a week every other day. For this reason, the patient is placed on a prone position.(Details of stretching are provided in control group). Intervention 3: Control group:static stretch: The individual is in an supine position and the hip and knee joints are stretched at 90 degrees flexion. To prevent posterior pelvic tilt and lumbar flexion، pelvic is fixed. For this reason, the opposite leg is pushed down by the examiner. The examiner gently lifts the person's knees to straighten the knee to reach the end point of the range of motion and feel stretched under his arm. Stretching is given for 30 seconds, very slowly, gently and gradually to prevent stimulation of stretch reflex and increase muscle tone. After each stretch, rest for 5 seconds and repeat four times to achieve a total of two minutes.this process were performed for 3 sessions in a week every other day. Yes - There is a plan to make this available What will be shared: Only part of the data, such as information about the main outcome, can be shared. When: One year after the results were published To whom: Available to all physiotherapists. Conditions: No more conditions. Where to obtain: pooryamohamadi1372@gmail.com Email this address How to obtain: It takes about 3 months to send the data back to the applicant Comments:
