The inter- and intraobserver reliability of the walking-track analysis of sciatic nerve function in the rat was assessed. Twenty-five walking tracks were assessed on three different occasions by four observers. Whereas the interobserver reliability was found to be excellent (r = 0.92), the intraobserver reliability was only satisfactory (r = 0.53 to r = 0.76). Walking-track analysis provides a noninvasive technique to assess function recovery in the rat, with excellent intraobserver reliability demonstrated. The lower intraobserver reliability suggests limitations to this new measurement technique.
评估了大鼠坐骨神经功能行走轨迹分析在观察者间和观察者内的可靠性。四名观察者在三个不同时间点对25条行走轨迹进行了评估。结果发现观察者间可靠性极佳（r = 0.92），而观察者内可靠性仅为满意（r = 0.53至r = 0.76）。行走轨迹分析提供了一种评估大鼠功能恢复的非侵入性技术，已证明具有极佳的观察者内可靠性。较低的观察者内可靠性表明这种新测量技术存在局限性。
