Popis: | The psychometric qualities of the proprioception and dynamic trunk control tests have rarely been studied in individuals after stroke.To investigate the reliability and validity of the Trunk Position Sense Test (TPS) and Modified Functional Reach Test (MFRT) in persons after stroke.Thirty-two participants were included. The TPS and MFRT were assessed by two physiotherapists during a first session. After resting, a second session was conducted. The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was calculated to assess the test-retest (ICCThe TPS inter-rater reliability was good for vertical error (ICC = 0.75 [0.50-0.88]) while it was moderate for horizontal error (ICC = 0.48 [0.10-0.75]) as well as for test-retest reliability (0.39 ≤ ICC ≤ 0.59). As for the MFRT, inter-rater (0.76 ≤ ICC ≤ 0.90) and test-retest reliability (0.71 ≤ ICC ≤ 0.91) were good to excellent for anterior, paretic et non-paretic displacements. Horizontal errors for the TPS (-0.26 ≤ r ≤ -0.36) and anterior MFRT (0.38 ≤ r ≤ 0.64) values correlated moderately with trunk strength.The MFRT is a reliable test for persons after stroke with trunk control impairments. The TPS does not appear to be relevant for post-stroke individuals. This can be explained by the fact that its procedure is not easily applied for individuals after stroke - who may have significant motor and cognitive impairments. |
