Abstract
Background:To evaluate the reliability and discriminative validity of a proposed adapted tool for the assessment of movement control in patients with and without neck pain. Method:A cross-sectional study at a University hospital center involving 25 pain-free healthy controls and 25 patients suffering from neck pain. Participants were assessed by two raters for inter-rater reliability and 1 week afterwards by a same rater for intra-rater reliability. The assessment involved a test for the axioscapular (adapted scapular holding test; SHT) and craniocervical (adapted craniocervical flexion test; CCFT) region for which intra-class correlation coefficients (ICCs) were computed to define the reliability. Discriminative validity to distinguish patients from controls was assessed by cross-validated computation of sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative likelihood ratios, overall accuracy, and area under the curve. Results:The proposed tool was able to reliably assess sensorimotor impairment in participants at the craniocervical region (ICCintra= [0.52-0.82]; ICCinter= [0.60-0.85]), left axioscapular region (ICCintra= [0.43-0.77]; ICCinter= 0.71-0.90), and right axioscapular region (ICCintra= [0.47-0.79]; ICCinter= [0.42-0.77]). Furthermore, the tool yielded a sensitivity of 0.86, a specificity of 0.57, and accuracy of 0.71 (based on cross-validation). Conclusion:The proposed tool is able to reliably evaluate patients based on their sensorimotor performance in the craniocervical and axioscapular region.
