To examine (1) the intra-rater, interrater, and test-retest reliabilities of the timed Up and Go test with a motor task (TUG) in terms of the number of steps taken in the test and completion time in a population with chronic stroke; (2) the relation between stroke-specific impairments and the number of steps taken in the test and the completion time; (3) the minimum detectable change in TUG times; and (4) the cutoff time that best discriminates the performance of people with stroke from that of older adults without stroke.
Cross-sectional study.
University-based rehabilitation center.
A sample (N=65) of chronic stroke survivors (n=33) and healthy older adults (n=32).
Not applicable.
TUG times and number of steps taken; Fugl-Meyer Assessment for the Lower Extremities score; handheld dynamometer measurements of hip abductor, knee flexor and extensor, and ankle dorsiflexor and plantar flexor muscle strength; 5-times sit-to-stand test time, Berg Balance Scale score; conventional timed Up and Go test time, and Activities-specific Balance Confidence scale and Community Integration Measure questionnaire scores.
The TUG completion times and number of steps demonstrated excellent intra-rater, interrater, and test-retest reliabilities. The TUG times correlated significantly with the Fugl-Meyer Assessment for the Lower Extremities and Berg Balance Scale scores, with hip abductor, knee flexor, ankle dorsiflexor and plantar flexor strength on the paretic side, with 5-times sit-to-stand test times, and with times on the conventional timed Up and Go test. The minimum detectable change in TUG time was 3.53 seconds in stroke survivors. A TUG cutoff time of 13.49 seconds was found to best discriminate the performance of stroke survivors from that of older adults without stroke.
The TUG is a reliable, valid, and easy-to-administer clinical tool for assessing advanced functional mobility after a stroke.
研究(1)在慢性卒中患者群体中,带运动任务的定时起立行走测试(TUG)在测试步数和完成时间方面的评分者内信度、评分者间信度和重测信度;(2)卒中特异性损伤与测试步数和完成时间之间的关系;(3)TUG时间的最小可检测变化;(4)能最佳区分卒中患者与无卒中老年人表现的截止时间。
横断面研究。
大学附属康复中心。
慢性卒中幸存者样本(n = 33)和健康老年人样本(n = 32)(N = 65)。
不适用。
TUG时间和步数;下肢Fugl - Meyer评估得分;手持测力计测量髋外展肌、膝屈肌和伸肌以及踝背屈肌和跖屈肌力量;5次坐立试验时间、Berg平衡量表得分;传统定时起立行走测试时间、特定活动平衡信心量表和社区融入测量问卷得分。
TUG完成时间和步数显示出优异的评分者内信度、评分者间信度和重测信度。TUG时间与下肢Fugl - Meyer评估、Berg平衡量表得分、患侧髋外展肌、膝屈肌、踝背屈肌和跖屈肌力量、5次坐立试验时间以及传统定时起立行走测试时间显著相关。卒中幸存者TUG时间的最小可检测变化为3.53秒。发现TUG截止时间为13.49秒能最佳区分卒中幸存者与无卒中老年人的表现。
TUG是一种可靠、有效且易于实施的临床工具,用于评估卒中后的高级功能移动性。
