RESULTS
There was no significant difference between the demographic data of the
groups before the application (Table 1).
In the evaluation made after VSS application on all days and at the 24th
hour after the application, the fatigue values of the US and BS groups
decreased significantly compared to the BSS group. In addition, the
fatigue values of the BS group decreased significantly compared to the
US group in the evaluation made after the 2nd and 4th day VSS
application and at the 24th hour after the 2nd day application.
Considering the changes within the group after the vagus application;
fatigue values decreased significantly in all groups on all days (Table
2).
The pain scores of the BS group decreased significantly compared to the
US and control groups in the evaluation made after the 1st, 3rd day and
4th day VSS application and at the 24th hour after the 3rd day
application. In the evaluation made after the 2nd day VSS application
and at the 24th hour after the 1st day/2nd day application, the pain
scores of the US and BS groups decreased significantly compared to the
BSS group, while the pain scores of the BS group decreased significantly
compared to the US group. Considering the changes within the group after
the VSS application; pain scores decreased significantly in all groups
on all days (Table 2).
After the VSS application, the lactic acid values of the BS group
decreased significantly compared to the US and BSS groups. However,
there was no significant difference between the other groups and in the
evaluation made at the 24th hour after the application. Considering the
intragroup changes in the evaluation made after the VSS application and
at the 24th hour after the application; lactic acid values decreased
significantly in all groups (Table 3).
No significant difference was found in the distance parameter in both
between-group and in-group analyzes (Table 3).
RMSSD and PNN50 values of the BS group increased significantly compared
to the US and BSS groups in the evaluation made after the VSS
application and at the 24th hour after the VSS application. In addition,
after the VSS application, the RMSSD and PNN50 values of the US group
increased significantly compared to the BSS group (Table 4).
After the VSS application, the HF values of the BS and US groups
increased significantly compared to the BSS group. In addition, the HF
values of the BS group increased significantly compared to the US group.
In the evaluation made at the 24th hour after the VSS application, the
HF values of the BS group increased significantly compared to the BSS
group. However, no significant difference was found between the other
groups (Table 4).
Considering the intragroup changes in the evaluation made after the VSS
application and at the 24th hour after the VSS application; RMSSD, PNN50
and HF values increased significantly in all groups (Table 4).
After the VSS application, the LF values of the BS and BSS groups
decreased significantly compared to the US group. However, there was no
significant difference between the other groups and in the evaluation
made at the 24th hour after the VSS application (Table 4).
In the evaluation made after the VSS application and at the 24th hour
after the VSS application, the LF/HF ratio values of the BS and US
groups decreased significantly compared to the BSS group. In addition,
the LF/HF ratio values of the BS group were significantly lower than the
US group (Table 4).
Considering the intragroup changes in the evaluation made after the VSS
application and at the 24th hour after the application; LF and LF/HF
ratio values decreased significantly in all groups (Table 4).
After VSS application on all days, the pulse and systolic pressure
values of the US and BS groups decreased significantly compared to the
BSS group. On all days, the heart rate and systolic pressure values of
the BS group (except the 1st day) were significantly lower than the US
group. In addition, diastolic pressure values of the BS group decreased
significantly compared to the BSS group after VSS application on all
days (Table 5).
In the evaluation made at the 24th hour after the 1st day VSS
application, the pulse values of the BS group were significantly lower
than the BSS group. However, there was no significant difference between
the other groups and in the 2nd day/3rd/4th day evaluation (Table 5).
Considering the changes within the group after the VSS application;
pulse and systolic/diastolic pressure values decreased significantly in
all groups on all days (Table 5).
