Sağlıklı quadriseps femoris kasında handheld dinamometrenin intrarater ve interrater güvenirliği: Kas kuvvetinin etkisi
Amaç: Bu çalışmanın birinci amacı Quadriseps Femoris (QF) kas kuvveti değerlendirmesinde hand- held dinamometrenin (HHD) intrarater ve interrater güvenirliğini incelemekti. Çalışmanın ikinci amacı kas kuvvetinin güvenirliğe etkisini belirlemekti.Yöntem: Çalışmaya gönüllü 40 beden eğitimi programı lisans öğrencisi (BEÖ) (20 kadın, 20 erkek; ortalama yaş: 21,8±1,84 yıl) ve 50 fizyoterapi programı lisans öğrencisi (FÖ) (25 kadın, 25 erkek; ortalama yaş: 20,9±1,38 yıl) katıldı. Dominant taraf QF kas kuvveti HHD kullanılarak ölçüldü. Ölçümler iki son sınıf fizyoterapi öğrencisi tarafından bir hafta ara ile alındı. Güvenirlik için Intraclass Correlation Coefficients (ICC) hesaplandı.Bulgular: Intrarater güvenirlik için ICC beden eğitimi öğrencilerinde 0.82 ve fizyoterapi öğrencilerinde 0.83 bulundu. Benzer sonuçlar interrater güvenirlik katsayısında da bulundu. (BEÖ öğrenciler için ICC=0.84; FÖ öğrenciler için ICC=0.83). Diğer taraftan, BEÖ öğrencilerinin QF kas kuvvetinin FÖ’ne göre daha yüksek olduğu görüldü (p<0.05).Sonuç: Çalışmamız genç sağlıklı yetişkinlerde QF kas kuvveti değerlendirmesinde HHD’nin interrater ve intrarater ölçümcü güvenirliğinin mükemmel olduğunu ve güvenirliğin kas kuvvetinden etkilenmediğini gösterdi.

Intrarater and interrater reliability of hand held dynamometer for healthy quadriceps femoris: the effect of muscle strength
Objective: The primary purpose of this study was to examine the intrarater and interrater reliability of hand-held dynamometry to assess Quadriceps Femoris (QF) muscle strength. The second purpose of the study was to detect the effect of muscle strength on reliability.Method: Forty voluntary undergraduate students of physical education program (20 male, 20 female; mean age: 21,8±1,84 yr) and 50 undergraduate students of physiotherapy program (25 male, 25 female; mean age: 20,9±1,38 yr) participated in this study. Dominant side QF muscle strength was measured using by a HHD. The measurements were taken by two final year physiotherapy students on two occasions, with a week between tests. The Intraclass Correlation Coefficients (ICC) was calculated for reliability.Results: ICC for intrarater reliability was 0.82 for the physical education students and 0.83 for the physiotherapy students. Similar results were found for interrater reliability (ICC=0.84 for the physical education students; ICC=0.83 for the physiotherapy students). On the other hand, physically active students were seen to have higher QF muscle strength compared to sedentary students (p<0.05).Conclusion: Our study show that HHD shows excellent interrater and intrarater reliability for assessing QF muscle strength in healthy young adults. The reliability is not influenced by muscle strength.
