Test-retest reliability of lower limb isokinetic endurance in COPD: A comparison of angular velocities
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to determine and compare the test-retest reliability of quadriceps isokinetic endurance testing at two knee angular velocities in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). METHODS After one familiarization session, 14 patients with moderate to severe COPD (mean age 65±4 years; forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) 55%±18% predic...
متن کاملTest-retest reliability of isokinetic muscle strength of the lower extremities in patients with stroke.
OBJECTIVE To i the test-retest reliability of isokinetic strength measurements of 3 muscle groups of the lower extremities in stroke patients. DESIGN Isokineth tests of bilateral hip flexors, knee extensors, and ankle plantarflexors at 2 angular velocities, performed during 2 sessions scheduled 1 week apart for each subject. SETTING Outpatilitation clinic of a local hospital in Taiwan. PA...
متن کاملTest–Retest Reliability of Lower Extremity Functional Tests After a Closed Kinetic Chain Isokinetic Testing Bout
Context: Athletes are often examined for return to sports using a functional-testing algorithm. No research has determined whether a closed kinetic chain (CKC) isokinetic testing bout influences the reliability of functional tests. Objective: To determine whether a concentric CKC isokinetic test bout alters test–retest reliability of lower extremity functional testing. Design: Subjects particip...
متن کاملTest-retest reliability of Motricity Index strength assessments for lower extremity in post stroke hemiparesis
Background: The Motricity Index was used to measure strength in upper and lower extremities after stroke. The weighted score based on the ordinal 6 point scale of Medical Research Council was used to measure maximal isometric muscle strength. There is dearth of articles dealing with the reliability of this method. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the test retest reliability o...
متن کاملDoes lower-limb angular velocities scale linearly with walking speeds?
During human locomotion, lower limb segments form two kinematic chains linked at the plevis and oscillates back and forth repeatatively. The angular motion of each segment (foot, shank and thigh) is inherently constrained by the adjacent segments. Therefore, the movement for each segment is not totally independent and there exists a high degree of redundancy in the kinematic data for each segme...
