Whole-body lifting strategies could be derived from conventional video recordings using the Stoop-Squat-Index, which quantifies the ratio between trunk forward lean and lower extremity joint flexion from 0 (full squat) to 100 (full stoop). The purpose of this study was to compare Stoop-Squat-Indices derived from conventional video recordings to those from a three-dimensional marker-based motion capture system and to evaluate interrater and intrarater reliability of the video-based approach. Thirty healthy participants lifted a 5-kg box under different conditions (freestyle, squat, stoop). Kinematic data were recorded using a Vicon motion capture system (serving as reference standard) and an iPad camera. Stoop-Squat-Indices over the entire lifting cycle were derived separately from both approaches. Agreement was assessed using mean differences (video minus motion capture) and limits of agreement. Reliability was investigated by calculating intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) and minimal detectable changes (MDC) over the course of the lifting cycle. Systematic errors were identified with Statistical Parametric Mapping-based T-tests. Systematic errors between the video-based and the motion capture-based approach were observed among all conditions. Mean differences in Stoop-Squat-Indices over the lifting cycle ranged from 6.9 to 3.2 (freestyle), from 1.8 to 5.3 (squat) and from 2.8 to 1.1 (stoop). Limits of agreement were lower when the box was close to the floor, and higher towards upright standing. Reliability of the video-based approach was excellent for most of the lifting cycle, with ICC above 0.995 and MDC below 3.5. These findings support using a video-based assessment of Stoop-Squat-Indices to quantify whole body lifting strategy in field.
