Effectiveness of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation over Protective Athletic Equipment as Performed by Certified Athletic Trainers
(North Dakota State University, 2020)Certified Athletic Trainers (ATCs) are expected to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) on athletes experiencing cardiac arrest, regardless of whether the athlete is wearing protective athletic equipment. The goal ... -
Strategies for the Reduction of Adipose Tissue and Retention of Muscle Mass in Overweight Individuals
(North Dakota State University, 2020)Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine whether time-restricted feeding (TRF) was an effective dietary strategy for reducing fat mass and preserving fat-free mass while evaluating potential changes in cardiometabolic ... -
Does Relative Energy in Sport Undermine Bone Health?
(North Dakota State University, 2020)Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S) is a term expanded from the female athlete triad the is inclusive to males and females and the negative physiological symptoms impacting athlete health and performance from low ... -
The Effects of Remote Post-Exercise Ischemic Conditioning on Recovery from Strenuous Exercise
(North Dakota State University, 2020)BACKGROUND: Strategic limb occlusion applied after exercise (PEIC) may expedite recovery, not just in directly affected tissue, but over the entire body via circulating factors. METHODS: Twenty active college-age males ... -
Exercise and Nutrition to Counter Age-Related Decrements in Muscle Health and Function
(North Dakota State University, 2020)Muscle atrophy and strength decrements can occur following disease (e.g., cachexia), with increasing age (e.g., sarcopenia), or from disuse related to injury or occupational environment (e.g., microgravity). High-load ... -
Use of the Graston Technique® in Clinical Practice by Certified Athletic Trainers
(North Dakota State University, 2020)The Graston Technique® is a common treatment that combines a warm-up, Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM), stretching, and strengthening protocols. The treatment is commonly chosen by clinicians to treat ... -
A Comparison of Kinesio® Taping Methods for Subjects with Patellar Tendonitis
(North Dakota State University, 2020)This project investigated the effects of Kinesio® Tape on pain, kinesiophobia, and proprioception in participants with patellar tendonitis. Thirty participants with patellar tendonitis were divided into three groups, the ... -
Investigating the Relationship Between Self-Efficacy and Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Quality in Certified Athletic Trainers
(North Dakota State University, 2020)Certified athletic trainers (ATCs) are often the first to respond to an athletic sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) and are expected to administer the highest quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) possible. The goal of ... -
The Rate of Intramuscular Tissue Temperature Reduction Between Wetted Ice with Elastic Wrap and Game Ready®
(North Dakota State University, 2020)In recent years, the Game Ready® unit has become a popular cryotherapy modality to treat musculoskeletal injuries. The purpose of this study was to determine which cryotherapy method, wetted ice bag with elastic wrap or ... -
Changes in Energy Intake and Appetite Following Different Intensities of Aerobic Exercise
(North Dakota State University, 2019)This research evaluated changes in appetite, energy intake, and body composition following 15 sessions of both moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) in overweight and ... -
Comparing Blood Serum Values of Vitamin D and Calcium in Division I Female Athletes
(North Dakota State University, 2019)The purpose was to compare blood serum levels of vitamin D and calcium to bone mineral density and previous fracture in Division I women’s basketball and soccer athletes. We recruited thirty athletes (19.53 ± 1.105 years); ... -
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 ... -
Comparison of Shortwave Diathermy and Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization on Improving Hamstring Range of Motion
(North Dakota State University, 2019)Limited research exists on the comparison of pulsed shortwave diathermy (PSWD) and instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM). In addition, minimal research exists on the AcuForce® 7.0 and none of it examines the ... -
Evaluating Effectiveness of an Undergraduate Dietetics Curriculum
