Abstract

Objectives: The aim of the current study was to investigate the inter-tester reliability of the MSI classification test items in patients with neck pain.

Methods: sixty subjects with neck pain (18-65 years) participated in this cross-sectional study. The examination of each patient, included the evaluation of signs and symptoms during posture and movement tests and the MSI diagnosis of subjects with cervical pain, was performed simultaneously by three testers in one session. Kappa and gamma values were used to determine the measure of agreement between testers for each of the test items and classification judgment.

Results: The kappa values for inter-tester reliability of the sign items ranged from 0.36 to 1. For the symptom items kappa values ranged from 0.36 to 1. The kappa values of inter-tester reliability for patients' classification judgments ranged from 0.71 to 0.73.

Conclusion: The inter-tester reliability between three testers according to the MSI approach for neck pain classification, sign and symptom was generally acceptable.

基于运动系统损伤的机械性颈痛分类诊断测试的可靠性。

目的：本研究旨在探讨颈痛患者MSI分类测试项目的测试者间信度。方法：60例颈部疼痛患者（18-65岁）参加横断面研究。每位患者的检查，包括姿势和运动测试期间的体征和症状评估以及颈椎疼痛受试者的MSI诊断，由三名测试人员在一次会议中同时进行。Kappa和gamma值用于确定测试者之间对每个测试项目和分类判断的一致性度量。结果：各标志项目的测者间信度kappa值在0.36 ~ 1之间。症状项的kappa值为0.36 ~ 1。患者分类判断的检验间信度kappa值在0.71 ~ 0.73之间。结论：采用MSI方法进行颈部疼痛分类、体征和症状的三种测试者间信度基本可以接受。
