Intra-rater reliability of hip abductor isometric strength testing in a standing position in older fallers and non-fallers
BACKGROUND: Reduced hip muscle strength has been shown to be a major factor related to falls in older persons. However, comprehensive assessment of hip abduction strength in the clinical setting is challenging. The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility and intra-rater reliability of a...
