简要总结
Stretching effects skeletal muscle flexibility, vascularity and physical performance. The aim of our study is to examine the acute effects of static stretching duration on gastrocnemius muscle vascularization in healthy participants by superb microvascular imaging (SMI) and to compare the effects of 2 and 5 minutes of static stretching on blood flow.
详细描述
The study will be included 30 healthy volunteers. The participants will be divided into two groups. Static stretching was administered to the gastrocnemius muscle. Stretching applications will be applied to the first group for 2 minutes and to the second group for 5 minutes. Muscle vascularization will be evaluated by a new method, superb microvascular imaging (SMI). SMI is a recently developed ultrasound imaging technique that aims to visualize low velocity and small diameter blood vessel flow.

结局指标
主要结局
Muscle vascularization
时间窗: 10 minutes after the application.
The evaluation of muscle vascularization will be made using the Superb microvascular imaging method by a radiologist. Superb microvascular imaging is a recently developed ultrasound imaging technique that aims to visualize low velocity and small diameter blood vessel flow.
