Abstract

Introduction

The Modified Four Square Step Test (mFSST) evaluates dynamic stabilization by using tape instead of canes to prevent people from tripping over obstacles and losing their balance. There was no study investigating reliability and validity in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). This study aimed to evaluate the test-retest reliability, concurrent validity, and minimum detectable change in the mFSST for individuals with primary THA.

Method

This study was cross-sectional in design. A total of 29 individuals aged 56.86 ± 10.14 years participated. The study used the test-retest method to determine the reliability of the mFSST and concurrent validity. The Timed Up and Go Test (TUGT) and Berg Balance Scale (BBS) were applied for concurrent validity. The minimum detectable change (MDC95) and the standard error measurement (SEM) were calculated.

Results

The mFSST showed excellent intra-rater reliability (ICC = 0.925). The SEM and MDC95 of the mFSST were 1.56 and 4.32. The test had a strong correlation with TUGT (r = 0.881) and BBS (r = −0.718) (p < 0.001).

Conclusion

The mFSST is a valid and reliable assessment tool that can be used for individuals with primary THA.

全髋关节置换术中改良四方格台阶试验的有效性和可靠性

导言改良四方步测试（mFSST）通过使用胶带代替手杖来评估动态稳定性，以防止人们被障碍物绊倒而失去平衡。目前还没有针对全髋关节置换术（THA）的信度和效度的研究。本研究旨在评估原发性全髋关节置换术患者的 mFSST 的重复测试可靠性、并发有效性和最小可检测到的变化。共有 29 名年龄为（56.86 ± 10.14）岁的患者参与了研究。研究采用重复测试法来确定 mFSST 的可靠性和并发有效性。同时效度采用了定时起立行走测试（TUGT）和伯格平衡量表（BBS）。结果 mFSST 的评分者内部信度极佳（ICC = 0.925）。mFSST 的 SEM 和 MDC95 分别为 1.56 和 4.32。该测试与 TUGT（r = 0.881）和 BBS（r = -0.718）有很强的相关性（p < 0.001）。
