To determine the validity and inter-session reliability of the Vail Sport Test™.
Cohort study-exploratory methodological research design.
Clinical Research Laboratory.
Forty-eight participants who underwent ACL-R.
Participants performance on the Vail Sport Test™ was graded by an experienced rater in real-time, and simultaneously recorded by a three-dimensional (3D) motion capture system. Construct validity was assessed using the reference standards of the camera system and the IKDC short form. To determine the between-day reliability, a subset of participants returned to repeat the test.
There were no significant difference between the scores collected in real-time and from the kinematic data on the involved limb (p = 0.222). There was a significant difference for the uninvolved limb (p = 0.015). There was no significant difference between the scores collected in real time and those of the IKDC (p = 0.885). Good inter-session reliability (ICC = 0.787) was found for the involved limb.
The results of this study showed good reliability and partially support the validity of the Vail Sport Test as a measure of readiness to return to play.
确定韦尔运动测试™（Vail Sport Test™）的有效性和不同测试时段间的可靠性。
队列研究——探索性方法学研究设计。
临床研究实验室。
48名接受前交叉韧带重建（ACL - R）的参与者。
由一名经验丰富的评估者对参与者在韦尔运动测试™中的表现进行实时评分，并同时由三维（3D）运动捕捉系统记录。使用摄像系统和国际膝关节文献委员会（IKDC）简表的参考标准评估结构效度。为确定不同日期间的可靠性，部分参与者返回重复测试。
患侧肢体实时收集的分数与运动学数据收集的分数之间无显著差异（p = 0.222）。非患侧肢体存在显著差异（p = 0.015）。实时收集的分数与IKDC的分数之间无显著差异（p = 0.885）。患侧肢体显示出良好的不同测试时段间可靠性（组内相关系数ICC = 0.787）。
本研究结果显示出良好的可靠性，并部分支持韦尔运动测试作为衡量恢复运动准备情况指标的有效性。
