NCT ID NCT07687550

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This study looks at how repetitive overhead movements, like volleyball spikes, affect shoulder mechanics and structures when muscles are tired. Healthy recreational volleyball players perform a fatigue protocol using Thera-band exercises, and researchers measure joint angles, muscle activation, and shoulder space using motion tracking and ultrasound. The goal is to understand fatigue-related changes and compare players with good versus poor shoulder control.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Upper Extremity Muscle Fatigue Protocol (Thera-band exercises)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help design training or injury prevention programs for volleyball players to reduce shoulder strain during spikes.
What could go wrong
This is a small observational study with only 35 participants, so findings may not apply to all athletes or to game-like conditions.
