The Effects of a Kinesio® Tape Application on Intramuscular Tissue Temperature Change during a 20-Minute Cryotherapy Application
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
The methodology for this research study was specifically designed to investigate whether or not Kinesio® Tape would act as a barrier during a cryotherapy application. Previous research has concluded that certain dressings ...
Measuring Motivation and Performance on the Army Physical Fitness Test in North Dakota Army National Guard Soldiers
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
OBJECTIVE: To determine the relationships between a soldiers’ type of motivation to complete the Army Physical Fitness Test (APFT) and their performance on the APFT. In research most self-determined (MSD) forms of motivation ...
Concurrent Validity of the Fitbit Flex Personal Activity Monitor and ActiGraph GT3X+ in Free-Living Setting
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
This study investigated the concurrent validity of two accelerometer-based physical activity (PA) monitors, the wrist-worn Fitbit Flex, and ActiGraph’s hip-worn GT3X+. Specifically, we examined the relationship, differences, ...
The Effects of Kinesio® Tape on Acromiohumeral Distance in Patients with Subacromial Impingement
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Kinesio® Tape has the potential to optimize the treatment of subacromial impingement syndrome. This research project investigated the effect Kinesio® Tape has on patient-reported outcome measures and acromiohumeral distance ...
The Acute Effects of L-Arginine Supplementation on Flow-Mediated Dilation after Resistance Training to Fatigue
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of acute L-arginine supplementation on the endothelial health in healthy adults by assessing flow-mediated dilation (FMD) and cardiovascular indicators both before and ...
An Analysis of Certified Athletic Trainers’ Ability to Provide High-Quality Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) over Hockey Shoulder Pads
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Certified Athletic Trainers (ATCs) are expected to perform CPR for athletes regardless of whether the athlete is wearing protective equipment. The goal of this research was to determine /if ATCs were able to/ deliver ...
Comparing Subjective Fatigue During Two Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) Models
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
Bystanders are the first rescuers to perform CPR for patients suffering from cardiac arrest. Compression-only CPR decreases the amount of interruption time between compressions but increases the fatigue of the rescuer. In ...
The Graston Technique® Increases Hamstring Flexibility
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Soft tissue mobilization techniques have been reported to increase hamstring flexibility. However, no one has reported the effects of the Graston Technique® on increasing hamstring flexibility. The purpose of this study ...
Clinical Outcomes of Different Tempos of Music during Exercise in Cardiac Rehabilitation Patients
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
This study examined the effects of stimulating and sedative music on ratings of perceived exertion (RPE), heart rate (HR), blood pressure (BP), and feeling status during exercise in cardiac rehabilitation (CR) patients. ...
Patient Reported Outcomes in a Physically Active Population
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
OBJECTIVE: To examine the efficacy of patient-reported outcome measures in the physically active and to determine whether a relationship exists between general health-related quality of life and specific outcome measures. ...
