“…Data were then analysed using SPSS 15.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). The reliability analysis used in many studies (Troke et al 1996, Schuit et al 1997, Mannion and Troke 1999, Ng et al 2001) has been criticised since the level of association between the data is assessed and no information on the level of agreement between measures is provided (Bland andAltman 1986, McGinley et al 2009). To overcome this, it has been recommended that intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) values are complemented with data that examine the level of agreement between measurements, for example, using Bland and Altman methods (Bland andAltman 1986, Rankin andStokes 1998).…”

The BodyGuard TM is a spinal position monitoring device that can monitor posture in real time, both inside and outside the laboratory. The reliability of this wireless device was examined in 18 healthy participants during usual sitting and forward bending, two tasks that are commonly provocative in NSCLBP. Reliability was determined using intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC), the standard error of measurement (SEM), the mean difference and the minimal detectable change (MDC90). Betweenday ICC values ranged from 0.84 to 0.87, with small SEM (5%), mean difference (59%) and MDC90 (514%) values. Inter-rater ICC values ranged from 0.91 to 0.94, with small SEM (4%), mean difference (6%) and MDC90 (9%) values. Between-day and inter-rater reliability are essential requirements for clinical utility and were excellent in this study. Further studies into the validity of this device and its application in clinical trials in occupational settings are required. Statement of Relevance:A novel device that can analyse spinal posture exposure in occupational settings in a minimally invasive manner has been developed. This study established that the device has excellent between-day and inter-rater reliability in healthy pain-free subjects. Further studies in people with low back pain are planned.

“…Articles failed inclusion due to the following reasons: 507 used other technologies such as roentgenographic analysis or invasive procedures such as spinal surgery 41,42 ; 391 did not use a test-retest or intratester/intertester design; 131 involved other activities such as walking; 71 were not written in English, Danish, Swedish, or Norwegian languages; and 40 were animal studies. For the included articles, reproducibility or reliability of spinal lumbar motion was reported as a sole investigative target in 7 articles, [23][24][25][43][44][45][46] whereas the remaining 8 articles investigated reproducibility or reliability as part of a study dealing with another primary aim. 22,26,[47][48][49][50][51][52] There were only minor disagreements between the 2 reviewers with respect to selection of the studies or extraction of data and with respect to the quality assessment judgment.…”

“…Differences in flexibility between joints and individuals are due to longterm adaptations, not the changes that take place after a set of warm-up activities (Enoka, 2002;Zakas et al, 2006;Beedle and Mann, 2007). Cervical spine studies have suggested that warm-up exercises which simulate the actual testing procedure increase the compliance of neck soft tissue and minimise the process of creep associated with repetitive measurements (Troke et al, 1996(Troke et al, , 1998. Practice of the real tests would also allow the examiner to correct possible incorrect performances from the subjects and it is generally accepted that in any future developments a warm-up session should be included.…”

Neck pain and headache of cervical origin are complaints affecting an increasing number of the general population. Mechanical factors such as sustained neck postures or movements and long-term "abnormal" physiologic loads on the neck are believed to affect the cervical structures and compromise neck function. A comprehensive assessment of neck function requires evaluation of its physical parameters such as range of motion, proprioception, strength and endurance/fatigue. The complicated structure of the cervical spine however, makes it difficult for any clinician to obtain reliable and valid results. The aim of the first part of this systematic critical review is to identify the factors influencing the assessment of range of motion and proprioception of the cervical spine.
