Intramuscular Pressure, Tissue Oxygenation, and Muscle Fatigue of the Multifidus During Isometric Extension in Elite Rowers With Low Back Pain
Journal of Sport Rehabilitation, 11/05/09

Dehner C et al. – At the beginning (controls 186.6 mm Hg vs rowers 60.2 mm Hg, P = .002) and the end (controls 224.1 mm HG vs rowers 77.1 mm Hg, P < .001) of the endurance exercise the median IMP was significantly higher in the healthy controls. Nearly identical resting pO2 was measured in both groups (controls 37.6 mm Hg vs rowers 37.3 mm Hg, P = .740). Rowers showed higher median MF shift (rowers –11.5 Hz vs controls –8.5 Hz, P = .079) during contraction. These observations cannot sufficiently be explained by the chronic functional compartment syndrome (CFCS) model and suggest that factors other than intramuscular pressure (IMP) have an additional effect on pain generation during exercise in elite rowers.
