Trial summary

Background: Depending on nature and needs, physical fitness can be divided into healthy fitness and physical fitness (also known as competitive fitness). Healthy fitness includes cardio-respiratory fitness, muscle fitness, muscular endurance, flexibility, and body composition. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: To Verify the Reliability and Validity of Kinect Detector While Apply to Physical Fitness Tests and Gait Performance Analysis

Background: Depending on nature and needs, physical fitness can be divided into healthy fitness and physical fitness (also known as competitive fitness). Healthy fitness includes cardio-respiratory fitness, muscle fitness, muscular endurance, flexibility, and body composition. Physical fitness includes coordination, speed, explosiveness, balance, agility, and reaction time. Although the monitoring of fitness is very important, most of the tests need to be assisted by professionally trained fitness inspectors, so that the public who wants to regularly check their fitness status will facing a dilemma-- insufficient of inspectors. In the face of such a situation, the somatosensory detector may be a choice which is relatively objective, convenient and no need to rely on the inspectors. Therefore, the validity and retest reliability of the somatosensory detector need to be verified in order to achieve accurate and objective measurement results.

Although the monitoring of fitness is very important, most of the tests need to be assisted by professionally trained fitness inspectors, so that the public who wants to regularly check their fitness status will facing a dilemma-- insufficient of inspectors. In the face of such a situation, the somatosensory detector may be a choice which is relatively objective, convenient and no need to rely on the inspectors. Therefore, the validity and retest reliability of the somatosensory detector need to be verified in order to achieve accurate and objective measurement results.

Research purposes: To verify the retest reliability and validity of the somatosensory detector on physical fitness and gait performance.

Methods: The trial will enroll 60 subjects, 30 of them were healthy individuals between the ages of 20 and 65, and 30 are healthy elderly than 65 years of age. The exclusion criteria including: (1) those who are unable to follow the instructions and who have orthopedic, nervous system or cardiopulmonary system disorders, or who have abnormal gait pattern, or who are affected by the above physiological system disorders. Subjects will receive two tests, there's a one-week interval between each test. In the first test, the fitness assessment of the fitness inspector and the somatosensory detector was performed simultaneously, and the fitness evaluation of the somatosensory detector was performed only for the second time. And use statistical software to analyze the reliability and validity of the somatosensory detector.

Statistical Analysis: Using SPSS 20.0 for data archiving and statistical analysis, the reliability and validity of the test will be detected by intraclass correlation one-way random model, and presenting by the intraclass correlation coefficient and 95% confidence interval.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Gait speed

    Gait speed is calculated using distance in meters and time in seconds.

    Measured: Change from baseline at one week

  2. Gait cadence

    Cadence is the rate at which a person walk, expressed in steps per minute.

    Measured: Change from baseline at one week

  3. Gait stride length

    The stride length is the distance between two successive placements of the same foot.

    Measured: Change from baseline at one week

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. One leg standing test

    To test balance ability

    Measured: Change from baseline at one week

  2. Functional forward reach test

    To test functional balance performance

    Measured: Change from baseline at one week

  3. Timed up and go test

    To test functional balance performance

    Measured: Change from baseline at one week

  4. Upper arm curl test

    To test functional muscle strength of upper extremities

    Measured: Change from baseline at one week

  5. 30 seconds sit-stand-sit test

    To test functional muscle strength of lower extremities

    Measured: Change from baseline at one week

  6. 2 minutes stepping test

    To test cardiopulmonary ability

    Measured: Change from baseline at one week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Healthy Adults, run by National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University at 1 site in Taiwan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Taiwan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Yea-Ru Yang, Ph.D. (+88628267279, yryang@ym.edu.tw), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Gait speed (time frame: Change from baseline at one week). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Aug 2019.
