Abstract/OtherAbstract:
It is recognized that due to muscle exercises cardio-vascular system undergoes various morphologic and functional changes among highly qualified sportsmen. Healthy vascular system is needed to meet successfully great physical load. Aim of the search was to study higher and lower extremity venous system functional condition during physical exercise and rest among highly qualified football players and wrestlers. Highly qualified 30 wrestlers and 25 football players of age 18-25 years were studied. Olympic, World and Europe champions were included among wrestlers. Apparatus Acuson 128 X P/10 performed color duplex sonography examinations, transducers 7.5 MHz lineal. Higher and lower extremity venous screening in B regime was simultaneously performed by blood stream color cartogram and blood stream spectral analysis. Study revealed no pathology and documented about even rates among football players and wrestlers for higher and lower extremities by color duplex sonography. B-regime revealed same echonegativity of lower extremity veins among wrestlers and football players. Target veins were distinguished by echopositive vessel wall lineal structure. In color duplex regime venous lumen were evenly filled with color. Sportsmen post--physical exercise color duplex sonography examination revealed higher extremity venous lumen diameter and blood stream parameters twice exceeded among wrestlers than football players. However, time needed for the venous lumen diameter and blood stream changes was equal for both groups of sportsmen. The study revealed that football player lower extremity medial and wide calibre venous diameter 2.5-3 fold increased during post-exercise examination; lower extremity venous diameter and blood stream restores to primary parameters 30 min earlier in soccer players than in wrestlers. Thus, higher and lower extremity veins react in different ways among sportsmen of different kinds. For example lower extremity vein diameter and blood stream increases in football players more than in wrestlers, while, higher extremity veins reach higher rates in wrestlers to compare to soccer players. These evidences conclude different adaptation resources among sportsmen of different physical trainings. That is why during physical load blood circulation in down to up direction is facilitated because of lower extremity muscle contraction support in football players.
