Research examining the measurement of trunk muscle strength after stroke is limited and diverse. This review, therefore, was undertaken to summarize research addressing what is known about measurements of trunk muscle strength after stroke.
Potentially relevant research was identified via 3 electronic database searches and a hand search. The research was examined for information on patients, measurement procedures and study findings. Findings regarding measurement properties (ie, validity, reliability, and responsiveness) were of particular interest.
Searches identified 260 potentially relevant articles of which 28 met inclusion and exclusion criteria. Research involving diverse populations and measurement procedures demonstrates that trunk muscle strength is impaired after stroke. Many studies show that measurements of trunk muscle strength have known-groups/conditions and convergent validity with balance and performance of functional activities. The literature also supports the reliability of measurements of trunk strength after stroke. Little is known regarding the responsiveness of the measurements.
Trunk strength is commonly impaired after stroke. As weakness of the trunk muscles can affect balance and function, it may warrant routine measurement.
关于中风后躯干肌肉力量测量的研究有限且多样。因此,本综述旨在总结有关中风后躯干肌肉力量测量的已知研究。
通过3次电子数据库检索和一次手工检索确定了潜在相关研究。对研究进行了关于患者、测量程序和研究结果的信息审查。特别关注关于测量特性(即效度、信度和反应度)的研究结果。
检索到260篇潜在相关文章,其中28篇符合纳入和排除标准。涉及不同人群和测量程序的研究表明,中风后躯干肌肉力量受损。许多研究表明,躯干肌肉力量测量在已知组/条件下以及与平衡和功能活动表现具有收敛效度。文献也支持中风后躯干力量测量的信度。关于测量的反应度知之甚少。
中风后躯干力量通常受损。由于躯干肌肉无力会影响平衡和功能,可能有必要进行常规测量。
