    摘要:

    目的:足部作为人体运动链的关键环节,承担支撑、缓冲、传递运动和维持平衡等功能,是人类直立行走的基础。本研究设计并验证了一种新型足扭转测量设备,旨在提供一种高精度、便携、适应多场景需求的足部生物力学测试工具。该设备创新性地结合高灵敏力矩传感器、可调角度装置和双轴承旋转系统,实现对足部内外翻扭矩、角度及刚度的实时测量。 方法:本研究招募32名受试者,分别在坐姿与站姿条件下开展重复测量,系统评估了该仪器的组内与组间可靠性。 结果:数据表明该设备在组内测量中具有极佳可靠性,扭矩和角度ICC分别为0.92–0.98和0.85–0.95 (优势侧),非优势侧结果相似;且SEM(扭矩0.15–0.24 Nm,角度0.13°–0.30°)及MDC值均较低。扭转刚度ICC浮动较大(0.32–0.91),总刚度ICC介于0.49–0.85,坐姿优于站姿。组间可靠性结果显示,扭矩和角度ICC最高分别达0.78和0.74,但刚度和总刚度ICC较低,表明组间一致性略低,后期将对该设备做进一步优化。 结论:该设备较低SEM和MDC值表明其对足部微小力学特性的变化具有较高检测敏感性和潜在实用性。综上,该设备凭借高精度、多功能性和便携特性,在运动损伤预防、康复评估及生物力学研究中具有广泛应用前景,未来可进一步优化动态测量功能并扩大样本验证其临床适用性。

    Abstract:

    Objective: The foot, as a critical component of the human kinetic chain, plays essential roles in supporting body weight, absorbing impact, transmitting motion, and maintaining balance, forming the foundation for upright locomotion. This study designed and validated a novel foot torsion measurement device, aiming to provide a high-precision, portable, and versatile biomechanical assessment tool for various scenarios. The device integrates a high-sensitivity torque sensor, adjustable angle set, and a dual-bearing rotational system to enable real-time measurement of foot inversion-eversion torque, angle, and stiffness. Methods: The experiment was conducted with 32 participants performing repeated measures during sitting and standing postures to test the reliability. Results: Results showed excellent intra-rater reliability, with ICCs for torque and angle ranging from 0.92-0.98 and 0.85-0.95 (dominant foot), respectively, with similar values in the non-dominant foot. Standard error of measurement (SEM: 0.15-0.24Nm for torque; 0.13°-0.30° for angle) and minimal detectable change (MDC) were low in all the parameters. Torsional stiffness exhibited large variability (ICC: 0.32-0.91), while total stiffness ICCs ranged from 0.49–0.85, during sitting conditions outperforming standing posture. Inter-rater reliability showed moderate ICCs for torque and angle (up to 0.78 and 0.74, respectively), whereas stiffness parameters remained low, suggesting the limited consistency across days, which requires further optimization of the device. Conclusion: The consistently observed low SEM and MDC values suggest that the sensitivity to detect subtle biomechanical changes in the foot complex. To sum up, the novel device demonstrated high precision, multifunctionality and portability, indicating strong potential for the application in injury prevention, rehabilitation assessment, and biomechanical research. Future work shall focus on optimizing dynamic measurement and expanding sample size to validate the application under the clinical settings.
