Clinical Trial: PD2i Analysis of Heart Rate Variability in Competitive Sports

Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: Completed
Study Type: Observational

Official Title: PD2i Analysis of Heart Rate Variability in Competitive Sports

Brief Summary: This is a double blind observational analysis of changes in heart rate variability using PD2i analyser in competitive athletes during strenuous exercise and competition.

Detailed Summary:
Sponsor: University of Mississippi Medical Center

Current Primary Outcome: Change in PD2i following strenuous exercise bout of 45 minutes [ Time Frame: Baseline at zero minutes and within 60 minutes of completion of strenuous exercise bout. ]

PD2i analysis of HRV measured before and after strenuous exercise in each sport. The change from baseline will be correlated to return to resting heart rate.


Original Primary Outcome: Change in PD2i following exercise [ Time Frame: 60 minutes ]

PD2i analysis of HRV measured before and after strenuous exercise in each sport


Current Secondary Outcome: Change in PD2i following an injury during competitive sports. [ Time Frame: Baseline PD2i at zero and within 60 minutes of cessation of exercise bout. ]

If an athlete participating in the research sustains an injury the PD2i analysis will be obtained and correlated to the baseline analysis.


Original Secondary Outcome: Change in PD2i following an injury during competitive sports. [ Time Frame: 60 minutes ]

If an athlete participating in the research sustains an injury the PD2i analysis will be obtained and correlated to the baseline analysis.
