Testing the Reliability of Kinovea Video Analysis Software in Measuring Knee and Hip Angles During Sit-to-Stand Tasks

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the intra-observer and inter-observer reliability of the Kinovea video analysis software in measuring knee and hip angles during the sit-to-stand movement. Participants will perform sit-to-stand tasks while being video-recorded. The recorded movements will be analyzed using the Kinovea software to determine the consistency and reliability of joint angle measurements.

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Hip Flexion

    Time frame: At baseline (single video recording session)

    Participants will perform a sit-to-stand task using a standard chair while lower extremity movements are recorded with a camera. The recorded videos will be transferred to the Kinovea software for the measurement of hip joint angles. To facilitate angle calculation, anatomical landmarks including the greater trochanter, the longitudinal axis of the trunk, and the midpoint of the thigh will be marked on the participant's clothing. Hip joint angles will then be analyzed using the angle measurement tool available in the software. Measurements will be performed independently by three physiotherapists at one-week intervals.

  2. Knee Flexion

    Time frame: At baseline (single video recording session)

    Participants will perform a sit-to-stand task using a standard chair while lower extremity movements are recorded with a camera. The recorded videos will be transferred to the Kinovea software for knee joint angle analysis. To calculate knee joint angles, anatomical landmarks including the greater trochanter, lateral femoral condyle, and lateral malleolus will be marked on the participant's clothing. Knee joint angles will then be analyzed using the angle measurement tool within the software. Measurements will be performed independently by three physiotherapists at one-week intervals.
