Reliability of the Timed Up and Go test and Ten‐Metre Timed Walk Test in Pregnant Women with Pelvic Girdle Pain

ConclusionThis study demonstrated that the TUG and 10mTWT undertaken at fast pace are reliable, objective functional tests in pregnant women with PGP. While both tests are suitable for use in the clinical and research settings, we would recommend the TUG given the findings of higher test‐retest reliability and as this test requires less space and time to set up and score. Future studies in a larger sample size are warranted to confirm the results of this study. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
