Central Sensitization and Physical Activity in Adolescents With HSD/hEDS

NCT05633225 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 100

Last updated 2023-11-07

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder and hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (HSD/hEDS) is under-recognized and poorly understood and its management is therefore not clear.

The goal of this study is to better understand pain and its impact on function in the daily activities of adolescents with Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder and/or hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome.

This study will explore the presence of the pain sensitivity status after physical exercise as well as movement behaviour in adolescents with HSD/hEDS compared to a healthy control group.

Conditions

  • Joint Hypermobility Syndrome
  • Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome

Interventions

OTHER

Submax exercise test on a bicycle ergometer

To achieve exertion and not exhaustion, cycling will be stopped at 75% of the expected maximum heart rate (maximum heart rate of 220 beats per minute minus age) as a target value. If the participant then indicated that they do not feel strained, the cycling will continue until the participant experienced an effort on Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion Scale scale of 15 (hard).
