The aim of the present study was to determine the reliability and feasibility of physical fitness tests in female fibromyalgia patients. 100 female fibromyalgia patients (aged 50.6±8.6 years) performed the following tests twice (7 days interval test-retest): chair sit and reach, back scratch, handgrip strength, arm curl, chair stand, 8 feet up and go, and 6-min walk. Significant differences between test and retest were found in the arm curl (mean difference: 1.25±2.16 repetitions, Cohen d=0.251), chair stand (0.99±1.7 repetitions, Cohen d=0.254) and 8 feet up and go (-0.38±1.09 s, Cohen d=0.111) tests. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) range from 0.92 in the arm curl test to 0.96 in the back scratch test. The feasibility of the tests (patients able to complete the test) ranged from 89% in the arm curl test to 100% in the handgrip strength test. Therefore, the reliability and feasibility of the physical fitness tests examined is acceptable for female fibromyalgia patients.
本研究的目的是确定体能测试在女性纤维肌痛患者中的可靠性和可行性。100名女性纤维肌痛患者(年龄50.6±8.6岁)进行了以下测试两次(测试-重测间隔7天):椅子坐立前屈、背部伸展、握力、弯臂举、椅子站立、8英尺起身行走和6分钟步行测试。在弯臂举测试(平均差异:1.25±2.16次重复,Cohen d=0.251)、椅子站立测试(0.99±1.7次重复,Cohen d=0.254)和8英尺起身行走测试(-0.38±1.09秒,Cohen d=0.111)中发现测试和重测之间存在显著差异。组内相关系数(ICC)范围从弯臂举测试的0.92到背部伸展测试的0.96。测试的可行性(患者能够完成测试)范围从弯臂举测试的89%到握力测试的100%。因此,所检查的体能测试的可靠性和可行性对于女性纤维肌痛患者来说是可以接受的。
