The aim of this study was to investigate whether muscle strength and functional exercise capacity (FEC) influence motor performance in children with generalized joint hypermobility.
Forty-one children (mean age: 8.1 years) with symptomatic generalized hypermobility were included. Motor performance was assessed using the Körperkoordinationstest für Kinder (KTK) and the Movement Assessment Battery for Children. Muscle strength and FEC were measured with a handheld dynamometer and the 6-minute walk test.
Only muscle strength was significantly positively associated with motor performance on the KTK. FEC was significantly decreased. Children's scores on the KTK were significantly lower (p < 0.001) compared with scores on the Movement Assessment Battery for Children.
The KTK is a more sensitive tool for detecting motor problems in children with generalized joint hypermobility, but is not associated with FEC. Along with the KTK, the 6-minute walk test can be used to independently assess and evaluate FEC.
本研究旨在调查肌肉力量和功能运动能力(FEC)是否会影响关节过度活动综合征患儿的运动表现。
纳入41名有症状的全身关节过度活动患儿(平均年龄:8.1岁)。使用儿童 Körperkoordinationstest(KTK)和儿童运动评估量表评估运动表现。用手持测力计和6分钟步行试验测量肌肉力量和FEC。
仅肌肉力量与KTK的运动表现显著正相关。FEC显著降低。与儿童运动评估量表的得分相比,儿童在KTK上的得分显著更低(p < 0.001)。
KTK是检测关节过度活动综合征患儿运动问题的更敏感工具,但与FEC无关。除KTK外,6分钟步行试验可用于独立评估FEC。
