Comparación de los parámetros de la prueba de estabilidad del miembro superior en cadena cinética cerrada para deportistas

Abstract

This research work was carried out with the objective of determining which variant of the CKCUEST test is related to the results of the YBT-UQ test, so that it can be applied to the ecuadorian athlete. The evaluations were carried out on a total of 67 athletes between the ages of 15 and 46, 45 male and 22 female. The CKCUEST tests with three different measures were used; original measure of 91.4 (CKCUEST1), measure of the acromion (CKCUEST2) and measure of half the height (CKCUEST3) and YBT-UQ with its medial, superolateral and inferolateral ranges, for each side; dominant (YBTUQ_D) and non-dominant (YBT-UQ_ND), in order to assess the stability of the upper limb. The evaluations were carried out on three different days 3 to 7 days apart, each one after training with the athlete fatigued. This research has a quantitative approach, because the CKCUEST and the YBT-UQ will be applied, obtaining numerical values that will be related by Pearson's parametric statistical test. It is of an observational type without intervention, because a comparison will be made in order to find a standard measure of the CKCUEST. It has a crosssectional design, since the data will be averaged, taking a single piece of data for comparison, and it is prospective because the athletes were directly evaluated.xiii As a result of the relationship between the CKCUEST and the YBT-UQ, which was carried out by means of a Pearson correlation, statistically significant results were found in the relationship between the YBT-UQ and the CKCUEST3; YBT-UQ_D (p= 0.005), YBT-UQ_ND (p= 0.126) and YBT-UQ_T (p= 0.025), demonstrating that the variant that is related to the YBT-UQ is the CKCUEST3, corresponding to the measurement taken from 50 % of the athlete's height, in conclusion, the CKCUEST3 is the variant with which Ecuadorian athletes who use the upper body should be evaluated
