Study Limitations. The HRET described in this study is designed for use as an objective outcome measure in ATR rehabilitation. Our use of a healthy population limits the generalisability of our findings to a clinical population. Ideally, this study should be replicated in an ATR population. This would provide important information on reliability and agreement (particularly for the limb symmetry index) and enable the computation of the smallest detectable change for treatment evaluation. The use of a single trained outcome assessor (intrarater reliability) also limits the generalisability of our findings to interrater reliability. Nevertheless, we would anticipate similar interrater reliability and agreement if the standardisation procedures described in this study are adhered to.
