The Fukuda step test is a valuable tool for identifying vestibular dysfunction in humans. This study evaluated the intra-rater and test-retest reliabilities of videograph observations to determine the diversion time while performing the Fukuda test. This study aimed to determine the use of videographic observation as a beneficial tool for recording real-time assessment procedures in clinical settings.
Fifty college students who were selected based on the inclusion criteria performed three consecutive sessions of the Fukuda step test. Intra-rater and test-retest reliabilities of the videograph observations were identified using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC).
We noted both, good intra-rater (ICC= 0.78) and moderate-to-good test-retest reliabilities (ICC= 0.69) of the videograph observations.
Videographic observation can be used in clinical settings to identify diversion times while performing the Fukuda step test.
福田步测法是识别人类前庭功能障碍的一项重要工具。本研究评估了视频观察法在进行福田步测时确定转向时间的评分者内信度和重测信度。本研究旨在确定视频观察法作为一种有益工具在临床环境中记录实时评估程序的用途。
根据纳入标准选取的50名大学生连续进行了3次福田步测。使用组内相关系数(ICC)确定视频观察的评分者内信度和重测信度。
我们注意到视频观察具有良好的评分者内信度(ICC = 0.78)和中度至良好的重测信度(ICC = 0.69)。
视频观察可用于临床环境,以在进行福田步测时识别转向时间。
