Effect of Proprioceptive Exercise Training on Joint Reposition Sense and Balance of Athletes with Knee Injury

並列摘要


The purpose of the study was to find the effects of proprioceptive exercise training on joint reposition sense and balance in athletes with knee joint injury. The subjects selected for the purpose of the study were five male post graduate students between the age group of 23 to 29 years pursuing their M. P. Ed. during the academic year 2012-13. The subjects suffered from knee injury during sporting endeavors at intercollegiate and inter University levels. All the subjects were recovering from sprained ligament of right leg that occurred within a span of one year. Tests included were Weight-Bearing Joint Reposition Sense; Non-Weight-Bearing Joint Reposition Sense; Romberg's test- Bilateral; and Romberg's test- Unilateral. The experimental design selected for the present investigation was single group pre test- post test design. The selected tests were administered to the subjects twice during pre test and post test situations. Mean, Standard Deviation 't' tests were included to statistically treat the data. The pre and post test scores of subjects on joint reposition sense test with and without weight bearing, and bilateral Romberg's test for balance showed significant differences. The unilateral Romberg's test for balance does not show significant difference. It was concluded that the proprioceptive exercise training during post injury rehabilitation has beneficial effects on joint position sense and balance of athletes with knee injury.
