Test-retest reliability of two-dimensional video analysis during running.
Physical Therapy in Sport 2018 September
OBJECTIVES: To examine test-retest reliability of two-dimensional measured frontal and sagittal plane kinematics during running, and to determine how many steps to include to reach and maintain a stable mean.
DESIGN: Reliability study.
SETTING: Research laboratory.
PARTICIPANTS: Twenty-one recreational runners.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Lateral trunk position, contralateral pelvic drop, femoral adduction, hip adduction, knee flexion and ankle dorsiflexion during midstance, and foot and tibia inclination at initial contact were measured with two-dimensional video analysis during running for 10 consecutive steps for both legs. All participants were tested twice one week apart. A sequential estimation method was used to determine the number of steps needed to reach a stable mean. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) and smallest detectable differences (SDD) were calculated.
RESULTS: The minimal number of steps was 6.3 ± 0.3. Lateral trunk position, femoral adduction and foot inclination showed excellent reliability (ICC 0.90-0.99; SDD 1.3°-2.3°). Tibia inclination and ankle dorsiflexion showed good to excellent reliability (ICC 0.73-0.92; SDD 2.2°-4.8°). Hip adduction and knee flexion showed good reliability (ICC 0.82-0.89; SDD 2.3°-3.8°). Contralateral pelvic drop showed moderate to good reliability (ICC 0.59-0.77; SDD 2.7°-2.8°).
CONCLUSION: Two-dimensional video analysis is reliable to assess running kinematics on different days. The mean of at least 7 steps should be included.
