Currently, no standardised screening tools nor established interventions are available to address the characteristics of back pain (BP) specifically in horse riders. Therefore, the aim of this case-control study is to explore sport-specific and functional characteristics of BP in horse riders. 16 professional and 16 amateur riders (25±7 years) participated in two questionnaires (a sport-specific questionnaire and the Oswestry Disability Index questionnaire) and were examined via the physical functional movement screening (FMS) and Luomajoki’s motor control (MC) screening. The lifetime prevalence of BP was as high as 81%, and spinal discomfort in horse riders was mainly located in the lumbar spine. Professional riders revealed significantly higher prevalence of BP in the last month before assessment (P=0.014) than amateur riders. Compared to horse riders using dressage or multiple saddle types, show jumping riders (n=10) who only use jumping saddles (P=0.027) also revealed higher BP prevalence. Horse riders with lower scores on the FMS and MC screening, and thereby with more movement dysfunctions, were found to experience higher levels of pain (r=-0.582, P=0.001; r=-0.404, P=0.024, respectively) and disability caused by BP (r=-0.688; P<0.001; r=-0.474; P=0.006, respectively). Both physical screening tools are found to be clinically relevant enabling investigators to identify objective functional characteristics related to BP in horse riders. The high prevalence of BP in riders is a clinically important finding that should be explored further to elucidate the causes and subsequently guide occupational health in horse riders.

Functional Movement Screening

The aim of this research was to verify the FMS (Functional Movement Screening) method as apredictor of success in performing gymnastic elements on the floor routine and vault, on aselected sample composed of 36 male subjects aged 20 - 22 years, students of Faculty ofPhysical Education and Sport, University of Banja Luka. A battery of 11 motor skills tests wasassessed: 7 at floor routine (side-to-side and front-to-back cartwheel, roundoff, front and backhandspring, forward and backward flip) and 4 on vault (squat through on the vault and straddlevault with pre-flight, front handspring on vault, roundoff vault) together with FMS resultsall results received normal distribution and a relatively low average FMS value(14.313), which according to many authors is near the limit of the risk of injury (14). The overallresults of the correlation analysis indicated statistically significant relationship between FMSand variables PRENAZ (0.049) and SALNAZ (0.038) at significance level of0.05, while the applied regression analysis gave general information on the prediction modelthat showed statistical significance of 0.03 with the predictor variable FMS at the level of significance0.05. Observing the values of the determination coefficients R2, it was establishedthat the FMS method can predict the performance of the selected gymnastic elements on thefloor routine and the vault as an integral model, explaining about 96% of the common variabilitywith a criterion, representing a significant statistical value.

Functional Movement Screening

OBJECTIVE: Dance is associated with a high risk of injury, with fatigue identified as a contributing factor. Functional movement screening (FMS) has been used to identify alterations in normal movement which may contribute to injury risk, though this test is not normally performed in a fatigued state. The aim of this study was to determine whether fatigue induced by the dance aerobic fitness test (DAFT) results in changes in FMS scores with implications for performance and injury risk. METHODS: Forty-one university dancers completed the FMS before and immediately after completion of the DAFT. Rate of perceived exertion and heart rate were quantified as measures of fatigue. RESULTS: Post-DAFT, the mean FMS composite score (15.39±1.86) was significantly less (p≤0.01) than the pre-exercise score (16.83±1.83). Element-specific analysis revealed that the deep squat, non-dominant lunge, and dominant inline lunge scores were all significantly impaired post-DAFT (all p≤0.01). CONCLUSION: The identification of changes in quality of movement in a fatigued state suggests that movement screening should also be performed post-exercise to enhance screening for injury risk. The influence of dance-specific fatigue was FMS element-specific. Specifically, the deep squat and inline lunge were most susceptible to fatigue, with implications for injury risk and performance and reflective of the high level of neuromuscular control required.
