Test-retest reliability of the StepWatch Activity Monitor outputs in healthy adults.
BACKGROUND Activity Monitors give an objective measure of usual walking performance. This study aimed to examine the test-retest reliability of the StepWatch Activity Monitor outputs (mean steps/day; peak activity index; sustained activity indices of 1, 5, 20, 30, 60 minutes; steps at high, medium, and low stepping rates). METHODS Thirty healthy adults age 18 to 49 years wore the StepWatch fo...

متن کاملTest-retest reliability of knee kinesthesia in healthy adults
BACKGROUND Sensory information from mechanoreceptors in the skin, muscles, tendons, and joint structures plays an important role in joint stability. A joint injury can lead to disruption of the sensory system, which can be measured by proprioceptive acuity. When evaluating proprioception, assessment tools need to be reliable. The aim of this study was to assess the test-retest reliability of a ...
متن کاملThe test-retest reliability of the onset of core and vasti electromyographic activity while ascending and descending stairs in healthy controls and patellofemoral pain patients
AbstractBackgroundentity. It is hypothesized to result from abnormal patellar tracking caused by altered motorcontrol. Deficit in neuromotor control of the core may be a remote contributing factor to thedevelopment of PFP. Application of reliable EMG measures would be helpful to handle thistheory. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the test-retest reliability of thecore and v...
متن کاملStep Activity Monitor: accuracy and test-retest reliability in persons with incomplete spinal cord injury.
Recovery of walking after incomplete spinal cord injury (iSCI) is a common focus of rehabilitation, but few measurement tools capture walking performance outside the clinic or laboratory. This study determined the accuracy and test-retest reliability of the Step Activity Monitor (SAM), a microprocessor-driven accelerometer that measures walking activity. We evaluated 11 individuals with iSCI du...
