本研究旨在描述中风患者在舒适的双侧直立姿势下使用数字浴室秤获得的承重测量的准确性和期间可靠性。这20名受试者都能独立行走，使用单侧辅助装置。通过三次试验测量了他们在舒适站立时的负重情况。方差分析显示，轻瘫侧和非轻瘫侧的负重测量值之和与总体重无显著差异。因此，认为测量结果准确。用方差分析证明了负重测量的一些变异性，这揭示了两侧试验之间的显著差异。然而，组内相关系数描述的可靠性是好的（0.829麻痹侧，0.876非麻痹侧）。尽管这种可靠性足以证明临床使用的合理性，但应检查增加可靠性的方法。
This study was designed to describe the accuracy and intrasession reliability of weightbearing measurements obtained with digital bathroom scales during comfortable bilateral upright stance in patients with stroke. The 20 subjects were all independently ambulatory with a unilateral assistive device. Their weightbearing during comfortable stance was measured over three trials. Analysis of variance revealed that the sum of the weightbearing measurements of the paretic and nonparetic sides did not differ significantly from total body weight. Thus, the measurements were considered accurate. Some variability in the weightbearing measurements was demonstrated with analysis of variance, which revealed significant differences between trials on both sides. Nevertheless, reliability as described by intraclass correlation coefficients was good (0.829 paretic side, 0.876 nonparetic side). Although such reliability is sufficient to justify clinical use, methods for increasing reliability should be examined.
