In evidence-based medicine, proper movement pattern screening tools for patients and athletes such as the Functional Movement Screen (FMS) are required. At this time, literature assessing quality criteria of the FMS is lacking. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the practicability of the FMS evaluating the inter-reliability of scored healthy physically active and non-active people. Eligible subjects were split in two groups and videotaped performing the FMS using a three-dimensional camera setup. Six FMS-experienced raters scored the seven sub-tests and three clearing exams in an online application following a standardized assessment protocol. According to the results it can be concluded that minor movement experience of non-active people does not affect the precision of screening. These findings indicate that the FMS is a solid and reliable screening tool among healthy active and non-active people. Therefore, the FMS can be commonly used to predict injury and increase the possibility to advise profound therapy and training recommendations in rehabilitation and athlete management.
