Abstract: Objective To investigate the reliability of isokinetic test for concentric flexion and extension of hip joint. Methods From September, 2014 to June, 2015, 30 healthy young people accepted isokinetic test for concentric flexion and extension of hip twice with the same procedure and method within a week. The intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC) of peak torque, peak torque to body weight, total work, total work to body weight and average power between the two tests was calculated. Results The ICCs were above 0.70 in all the parameters on both sides at 60°/s (P < 0.01). Meanwhile they were above 0.61 of right hip at 180°/s (P < 0.05), but below 0.55 on left (P > 0.05). Conclusion The isokinetic test for hip is reliable for clinical assessment.

Key words: isokinetic test, hip, concentric flexion, concentric extension, reliability
