Clinical Trial Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate the intra- and inter-rater reliability and
concurrent validity of surgimap software for measuring the Q angle Surgimap (Nemaris Inc, New
York, NY, USA) is a dedicated spine measurement and surgical planning software which is used
in both the research works and the clinical rehabilitation. Q angle is considered to be an
index of the vector for action of the patellar tendon and extensors mechanism which is highly
affects the patellofemoral joint dysfunction and foot mechanics.
Description:
specialised software for assessing the sagittal plane has arisen. Digital measuring software
of many types has been proved to be faster, more accurate, more precise, and less variable
than manual procedures. Angle measurement software is available in different formats and
applications. Surgimap is another programme used for measuring angles. The current software
has proven to be a godsend and is currently being used in the medical industry to measure
joint angles especially the spine alignment. The programme is also used for scientific
reasons, such as digital photo analysis. A recent study discovered that Surgimap software is
a viable approach for evaluating spinal postural angles in teenagers from varied standing
position perspectives using digital pictures.
As there a lack of knowledge about the reliability and validity of the surgimap software to
measure the Q- angle. Therefore, The study will investigate the inter-rater, intra-rater
reliability and concurrent validity of the surgimap software for measuring the Q-angle.
