Performance Outcome Measures in Padel: A Scoping Review
Abstract
Padel is a modern doubles racket sport which has become popular around the world in the last decades. There has been an increase in the quantity of scientific research about this sport in the last years. Therefore, the main objective of this scoping review is to provide an updated contextualization of research regarding padel. PRISMA ScR was used in order to search for articles fulfilling the inclusion criteria in five fields of interest: the anthropometric profile, physiology and physical performance, biomechanics, the epidemiology of injuries, and match analyses Seventy-seven records were included in the study. Padel is an emerging sport both in sport and research terms. This scoping review provides coaches and researchers with all the knowledge available in the five fields of interest. Furthermore, this study enables them to make a map of the current state of the research about padel, and it opens up doors to future investigations.

In the citing paper
“padel athletes exhibited an average heart rate (HR) ranging from 68% to 85% of their maximum HR, with peak heart rates during matches between 154 and 179 bpm. Lactate levels were measured between 2.40 and 3.38 mmol/L, and Borg scale ratings ranged from 3.84 to 5.85, indicating a predominantly aerobic effort.”
In the citing paper
“This sport intermittently uses sprints, agility, and changes in speed, leading to differences in physiological responses (lactate, heart rate, perceived effort) during play [1,3,4].”
In the citing paper
“A recent literature review [4] on elite and amateur players of both sexes reported average heart rate (HR) values during matches ranging from 130 to 151 bpm (68–74% of maximum HR) for amateur players and from 154 to 179 bpm (80–85% of maximum HR) for elite players.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
