Video analysis (VA) is commonly used in the assessment of sports injuries and has received considerable research interest. Until now, no tool has been available for the assessment of study quality. Therefore, the objective of this study was to develop and evaluate a valid instrument that reliably assesses the methodological quality of VA studies.
The Quality Appraisal for Sports Injury Video Analysis Studies (QA-SIVAS) scale was developed using a modified Delphi approach including expert consensus and pilot testing. Reliability was examined through intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and free-marginal kappa statistics by three independent raters. Construct validity was investigated by comparing QA-SIVAS with expert ratings by using Kendall's tau analysis. Rating time was studied by applying the scale to 21 studies and computing the mean time for rating per study article.
The QA-SIVAS scale consists of an 18-item checklist addressing the study design, data source, conduct, report, and discussion of VA studies in sports injury research. Inter- and intra-rater reliability were excellent with ICCs > 0.97. Expert ratings revealed a high construct validity (0.71; p < 0.001). Mean rating time was 10 ± 2 min per article.
QA-SIVAS is a reliable and valid instrument that can be easily applied to sports injury research. Future studies in the field of VA should adhere to standardized methodological criteria and strict quality guidelines.
视频分析（VA）常用于运动损伤评估，已受到相当多的研究关注。到目前为止，还没有用于评估研究质量的工具。因此，本研究的目的是开发和评估一种可靠的工具，以评估 VA 研究的方法学质量。
使用改良 Delphi 方法，包括专家共识和试点测试，制定了体育损伤视频分析研究质量评估（QA-SIVAS）量表。通过三名独立评估者的组内相关系数（ICC）和自由边际kappa 统计来检查可靠性。通过 Kendall's tau 分析，用 QA-SIVAS 与专家评分进行比较，研究了构效关系。通过对 21 项研究应用该量表，并计算每项研究文章的平均评分时间，研究了评分时间。
QA-SIVAS 量表由 18 项清单组成，涉及体育损伤研究中 VA 研究的研究设计、数据源、进行、报告和讨论。组内和组间可靠性均很高，ICC 值均>0.97。专家评分显示出较高的构效关系效度（0.71；p<0.001）。平均评分时间为每篇文章 10±2 分钟。
QA-SIVAS 是一种可靠和有效的工具，可轻松应用于运动损伤研究。VA 领域的未来研究应遵守标准化的方法学标准和严格的质量指南。
