A measure of early physical functioning (EPF) post-stroke.
OBJECTIVE To develop a comprehensive measure of Early Physical Functioning (EPF) post-stroke quantified through Rasch analysis and conceptualized using the International Classification of Functioning Disability and Health (ICF). DESIGN An observational cohort study. SUBJECTS A cohort of 262 subjects (mean age 71.6 (standard deviation 12.5) years) hospitalized post-acute stroke. METHODS Fu...
متن کاملEffects of premorbid physical activity on stroke severity and post-stroke functioning.
OBJECTIVE To explore the impact of premorbid physical activity on stroke severity and functioning, measured by activities of daily living, gait and balance during the acute period of first-ever stroke and at one-year follow-up. METHODS Acute phase and one-year follow-up registrations of 183 patients with first-ever stroke or transient ischaemic attack were included in the study. Gender, age, ...
متن کاملPhysical and Social Functioning After Stroke
Background and Purpose—This study evaluated assessments of physical functioning and social functioning using the Stroke Impact Scale (SIS) and Short Form-36 (SF-36) to characterize health-related quality of life for patients after stroke. Methods—The SIS and SF-36 were administered to 278 stroke subjects 90 days after stroke. The SIS-16 and SF-36 Physical Functioning (PF) domain characterize ph...
متن کاملAssessment of Post-Stroke Functioning Using Machine Vision
We present a system to automatically assess the functional performance of stroke survivors along axes defined by the Arm Motor Ability Test (AMAT). The upper body motion of seven stroke survivors was measured in a laboratory environment using a commercial motion capture device and a novel kinematic tracker of our design. Statistics generated by each individual were related to expert-determined ...
متن کاملStroke Self-efficacy Questionnaire: a Rasch-refined measure of confidence post stroke.
OBJECTIVE Measuring self-efficacy during rehabilitation provides an important insight into understanding recovery post stroke. A Rasch analysis of the Stroke Self-efficacy Questionnaire (SSEQ) was undertaken to establish its use as a clinically meaningful and scientifically rigorous measure. METHODS One hundred and eighteen stroke patients completed the SSEQ with the help of an interviewer. P...
