TABLE 4.
Minimal Detectable change of the SKD on mobility. The Standard Error of Measurement and Minimal Detectable change 95% are calculated utilizing Model 3,k for intertester reliability. Abbreviations: F, Flexion; E, Extension; H, Hip; L, Lumbar; T, Thoracic; ROM, Range of Motion; FFD, Finger Floor Distance; Δ, baseline-SKD difference; ICC, consistency intraclass correlation coefficient; CI, 95% confidence interval; SEM, Standard Error of Measurement, MDC, Minimal Detectable Change; X, doesn’t exist.
