Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.

Summary

Researchers are testing two different exercise programs to see which one better improves hip adductor strength in junior floorball players. About 50 players aged 16 to 20 will be assigned to either the Copenhagen Adductor Exercise or the Adductor Slide, both done for 8 weeks. The study measures changes in hip strength using handheld and stationary testing devices. The goal is to find out which exercise is more effective for building strength that may help prevent groin injuries.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
two hip-strengthening exercise programs: the Copenhagen Adductor Exercise and the Adductor Slide
What this could lead to
If one exercise builds hip adductor strength better, coaches could use it to help young floorball players lower their risk of groin injuries.
What could go wrong
The trial is small and short, so results may not hold for other players or sports. Strength gains do not always translate into fewer injuries.
