A Reliability Study of Measurement Techniques to Determine Static Scapular Position

摘要: Current shoulder rehabilitation programs encourage scapular stabilization components although, to date, no scientific studies have evaluated changes in position following such rehabilitation. Four different measurement methods of been reported the literature. The purpose this study was examine intratester and intertester reliability these four also if significant differences exist between dominant nondominant extremities. Thirty-two subjects volunteered for study. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) revealed acceptable (ICC = 0.81–0.95) all methods. However, while one method proved be 0.9I–.92) measurements, other three were unacceptable 0.18–0.69). One tester extremities when using most reliable method. seco...
