20.500.12556/RUL-131185 Reliability of the weight-bearing ankle dorsiflexion range of motion measurement using a smartphone goniometer application Background. Weight-bearing ankle dorsiflexion range of motion measurement (weight-bearing lunge test) is gaining in popularity because it mimics lower extremity function in daily physical activities. The purpose of the study is to assess the intrarater and the inter-rater reliability of the weight-bearing ankle dorsiflexion range of motion measurement with a flexed knee using a smartphone application Spirit Level Plus installed on an Android smartphone. Methods. Thirty-two young, healthy subjects participated in the study and were measured in four sessions by two examiners. One measurement was taken on each ankle in every session. Eight measurements were taken from each participant. A total of 256 were taken from all the participants. The measurements for the individual subject were repeated no sooner than 24 hours after the first session. In order to assess the reliability, intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC), standard error measurements (SEM) and minimal detectable change (MDC) at the 95% confidence interval were calculated. Results. Statistical data analysis revealed moderate intra-rater reliability for the right ankle (ICC = 0.72, 95% CI [0.49–0.85]) and good intra-rater reliability for the left ankle (ICC = 0.82, 95% CI [0.66–0.91]). Inter-rater reliability is moderate for the right (ICC = 0.73, 95% CI [0.52–0.86]) and the left ankle (ICC = 0.65, 95% CI [0.39–0.81]). Conclusion. The observed method is moderately reliable and appropriate when the main objective is to assess ankle dorsiflexion mobility in weight-bearing when weight-bearing is not contraindicated. The concurrent validity of the Spirit Level Plus application is excellent. ankle range of motion reliability weight-bearing lunge smartphone goniometer application gleženj obseg gibanja zanesljivost udarci z nosilnostjo aplikacija goniometer pametni telefon true false true Angleški jezik Ni določen Članek v reviji 2021-09-23 11:07:35 2021-09-23 11:07:36 2022-09-10 04:10:29 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2021 0 0 Str. 1-13 Vol. 9 22 Sept. 2021 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 615.8:004.382.745 2167-8359 10.7717/peerj.11977 77547011 https://peerj.com/articles/11977/ 1 6d18fc5a-1c4d-11ec-a523-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=148454 RAZ_Zunko_Helena_2021.pdf RAZ_Zunko_Helena_2021.pdf 1 FDC0E1A33BEC0B8E76907A00616AC241 52ba841120f9f9b525d8d8f1943e1d70e50f51f012161c14c93a6874e5a59c1d 00cb7f08-1c4e-11ec-a523-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=148455 Biotehniška fakulteta Zdravstvena fakulteta 0 0 0
