Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışma, ampütasyonu olan kişilerin spora katılımının fonksiyonel kapasiteleri üzerindeki etkisini araştırmak için yapılmıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya 18-45 yaş arası tek taraflı alt ekstremite kaybı olan 29 erkek futbolcudan oluşan spor grubu ve ampütasyonu olan sedanter 11 kişiden oluşan kontrol grubu dahil edildi. Vücut kompozisyonu, postural stabilite ve gövde kas kuvveti sırasıyla skinfold, Biodex Stabilite Sistemi ve izokinetik dinamometre ile ölçüldü. Solunum fonksiyon testi ve kardiyopulmoner egzersiz testi yapıldı. Aerobik kapasite, breath-by-breath (her nefeste) yöntemi kullanılarak kardiyopulmoner egzersiz testi ile değerlendirildi.
Bulgular: Triseps, uyluk ve baldır bölgelerinden yapılan deri kıvrım kalınlığı ölçümleri spor yapan grupta daha yüksek bulundu (p<0,05), vücut yağ yüzdesi ise her iki grup arasında anlamlı bir fark göstermedi (p>0,05). Postural stabilite, gövde kas kuvveti ve dayanıklılığı spor yapan grupta anlamlı olarak yüksekti (p<0,05). Tahmin edilen maksimum istemli ventilasyon (%MVV) ve tepe ekspiratuar akış (%PEF) değerleri spor yapan grupta anlamlı olarak yüksekti (p<0,05). Anaerobik eşiğe karşılık gelen kalp hızları spor grubunda daha yüksek bulunurken (p<0,05), istirahat ve maksimum kalp hızı açısından iki grup arasında anlamlı bir fark gözlemlenmedi (p>0,05). Spor yapan grubun egzersiz süreleri ve gaz değişim değerleri daha yüksekti (p<0,05).
Sonuç: Postural stabilite, gövde kas kuvveti ve fiziksel kondisyon futbolcularda daha iyi seviyedeydi. Bu bulgular, ampütasyonu olan kişilerde düzenli fiziksel aktivite yapmanın fiziksel performans gelişimi üzerine olumlu etkileri olduğunu düşündürmektedir.

EVALUATION OF PHYSICAL FITNESS AND ISOKINETIC TEST PARAMETERS OF AMPUTEE FOOTBALL PLAYERS

Abstract

Objective: This study was designed to investigate the effect of participation in sports on the functional capacity of a person with an amputation.
Material and Method: The study included a sports group of 29 male football players with unilateral lower limb loss aged between 18-45 years and a control group of 11 sedentary persons with an amputation. Body composition, postural stability, and trunk muscle strength were measured with a skinfold, Biodex Stability System, and dynamometer. A pulmonary function test and cardiopulmonary exercise test were performed. Aerobic capacity was evaluated by cardiopulmonary exercise test using the breath-by-breath method.
Result: Skinfold thickness measurements performed at the triceps, thigh, and calf regions were higher in the sports group (p<0.05), whereas body fat percentage indicated no significant difference among both groups (p>0.05). The sports group had higher postural stability, trunk muscle strength, and endurance (p<0.05). Predicted maximum voluntary ventilation (MVV%) and peak expiratory flow (PEF%) values were significantly higher in the sports group (p<0.05). The sports group had higher heart rates corresponding to the anaerobic threshold (p<0.05). At the same time, no significant difference was observed between the two groups concerning resting and maximum heart rate (p>0.05). The sports group had longer exercise times and higher gas exchange values (p<0.05).
Conclusion: Postural stability, trunk muscle strength, and physical condition were better in football players. These findings suggest that performing regular physical activities positively affects the development of physical performance in a person with an amputation.
