摘要
Sport-related concussions (SRCs) are a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) that induces transient symptoms in athletes. These symptoms provide avenues for developing emerging technologies to diagnose SRCs, in particular ocular and vestibular dysfunction. The following study aims to assess the reliability of visual smooth-pursuit technology (EyeGuide Focus) in amateur field-sport athletes. A convenience sample of 30 mixed-gender athletes (mean age = 24.89 +/- 6.81 years) completed two testing sessions separated by 2-7 days. Participants were tested at rest, free from distraction, and completed a 10 s smooth pursuit while seated. Participants completed 2-4 practice trials before completing three tests at each session. Appropriate difference, reliability, and repeatability tests were performed in Statistical Packages for the Social Sciences. No significant difference existed between the time points (p > 0.05). The reliability between sessions was poor (ICC = 0.24; 95% CI = 0.03-0.42), and the mean coefficients of variation were 20% and 21% for each session, indicating poor repeatability. However, the implementation of practice trials did prevent the familiarization effects that are evident in the previous literature (p > 0.05). The within-session reliability of EyeGuide Focus has varied from poor (ICC <= 0.50) to good (ICC = 0.75-0.90) in the previous literature, indicating the fact that greater research is required before this tool can be implemented in applied settings.
