Abstract

To investigate the intra-rater absolute reliabilities and validity of the Figure of-Eight Walk test (F8WT) in patients with chronic stroke. A total of 36 subjects with chronic stroke participated in this study. The inter-rater reliability of F8WT was calculated using intra-class correlation coefficients($ICC_{2,1}$). Moreover, we used the standard error measurement (SEM) and the small real difference (SRD) to examine the absolute reliability indices. The validity was demonstrated by a spearman correlation of F8WT with Postural Assessment Scale for Storke(PASS) and Trunk Impairment Scale(TIS). The inter-rater reliability of F8WT was excellent; ICC2,1=0.95(0.91~0.97), acceptable SEM=1.02, and SRD=2.82. F8WT were also found to be significantly associated with PASS(r=-0.82) and TIS(r=-0.85). Therefore, F8WT is a reliable measurement tool and is correlated well with stroke-impairments, such as postural and trunk control. F8WT will be a useful tool in evaluating the walking performance of subjects with chronic stroke.

본 연구의 목적은 만성 뇌졸중 환자 8자 모양 경로 보행 검사(Figure-of-Eight Walk Test, F8WT)의 측정자간 절대적 신뢰도와 타당도를 알아보고자 하였다. 만성 뇌졸중 환자 36명을 대상으로 하였으며 F8WT 소요 시간의 측정자간 신뢰도는 급간내상관계수(Intra Class Coefficient, $ICC_{2,1}$)를 구하였고, 절대적 신뢰도는 측정의 표준 오차값(Standard Error Measurment, SEM)과 최저 실제 차이(Small Real Difference, SRD)를 구하였다. F8WT 소요시간의 타당도는 뇌졸중 자세 평가 척도(Postural Assessment Scale for Stroke, PASS)와 체간 장애 척도(Trunk Impairment Scale, TIS)간의 스피어만 상관 계수(Spearman Correlation Coefficient)를 구하였다. 연구 결과 F8WT 소요 시간의 측정자간 신뢰도 ICC=0.95(0.91~0.97)로 매우 높았고, SEM과 SRD는 각각 1.02점, 2.82점으로 수용할 만 하였다. F8WT 소요 시간은 PASS(r=-0.82), TIS(r=-0.85)와 유의한 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 뇌졸중 환자의 특이성 장애인 자세 및 체간 조절과 유의한 관련성이 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서 F8WT는 만성 뇌졸중 환자의 보행 능력을 평가하는데 유용한 평가 도구로 사용될 수 있을 것이다.
