Inter and Intra Operator Reliability of Motor and Palpation Evaluation in Fascial Manipulation in individuals with coxarthrosis.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

An inter and intra rater reliability (INTERR and INTRAR) study was designed.

Methods

71 subjects, with primary hip coxarthrosis, were included and randomly divided in a study group (SG= 36) and a control group (CG= 35) to assess the efficacy of the Fascial Manipulation® (FM®) method. The primary objective was the assessment of INTERR and INTRAR about movement verification (MV) and palpation verification (PV) of FM® performed by two physiotherapists (PtA and PtB). The secondary objective was evaluate the efficacy of FM® through MV, PV and pain score. Pain was assessed using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). SG received three weekly sessions of FM® byPtA. PtB re-evaluated all the subjects at the end of the study.

Results

Results of the INTERR analysis showed for
