Abstract
Purpose This study aimed to determine the reliability of the RunScribe™ system to measure kinematic variables of the pelvis during walking and running. Methods In this study, a treadmill protocol was implemented where the participants (n=23) completed 3 sets of 1 minute at 5, 10 and 15 km.h-1. Results All the recorded measurements during walking reported a low reliability with coefficients of variation (CV) greater than 10% in all variables and small-moderate intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) (< 0.6) in seven out of ten variables. Similarly, the CVs reported in running were greater than 10% except for the maximum angular rate in the obliquity of the pelvis and the vertical oscillation that together with the angular velocity variables showed almost perfect ICCs (> 0.92). Conclusions Therefore, the data obtained suggests that the RunScribe™ system with 3 IMUs does not provide reliable metrics about the kinematics of the pelvis during locomotion (i.e., walking and running).
