The Matthiass posture test is a clinical test to detect posture changes in children and adolescents. Aim of this study was to objectify this test using a dynamic rasterstereographic measuring device. We examined 31 healthy athletes during a modified Matthiass test with a dynamic rasterstereographic measuring system. Hereby the trunk inclination, kyphosis and lordosis angle were measured. The trunk inclination decreased by about 50% of the basic value just by raising the arms. Additional weight loads of only 5% body weight (bw) resulted in significant changes of the posture (lordosis and kyphosis angle) during this test. With this rasterstereographic measuring device it seems to be possible to determine spinal posture changes under dynamic conditions. The results suggest that additional weights of 5% bw during the Matthias-test are enough to create significant deviations in posture parameters, even in healthy subjects.
马蒂亚斯姿势测试是一种用于检测儿童和青少年姿势变化的临床测试。本研究的目的是使用动态光栅立体测量设备客观化该测试。我们使用动态光栅立体测量系统对 31 名健康运动员进行了改良的马蒂亚斯测试。在此过程中,测量了躯干倾斜度、脊柱前凸和后凸角度。仅仅通过举起手臂,躯干倾斜度就减少了基础值的约 50%。在此测试中,仅 5%体重(BW)的额外重量负荷就会导致姿势(前凸和后凸角度)发生显著变化。使用这种光栅立体测量设备,似乎可以在动态条件下确定脊柱姿势变化。结果表明,在马蒂亚斯测试中增加 5% BW 的额外重量足以使健康受试者的姿势参数产生明显偏差。
