Application of the Gross Motor Function Measure-66 (GMFM-66) in Dutch clinical practice: a survey study
BACKGROUND The Gross Motor Function Measure-66 (GMFM-66) is an observational clinical measure designed to evaluate gross motor function in children with Cerebral Palsy (CP). It is a shortened version of the GMFM-88. A free computer program, the Gross Motor Ability Estimator (GMAE), is required to calculate the interval level total score of the GMFM-66. The aim of this study was to explore pedia...
متن کاملValidity and reliability of two abbreviated versions of the Gross Motor Function Measure.
BACKGROUND The "gold standard" for measuring gross motor function in children with cerebral palsy is the 66-item Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM-66). OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to estimate the validity and reliability of 2 abbreviated versions of the GMFM-66; one version involves an item set approach, and the other version involves a basal and ceiling approach. DESIGN This w...
متن کاملImproved scaling of the gross motor function measure for children with cerebral palsy: evidence of reliability and validity.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE This study examined the reliability, validity, and responsiveness to change of measurements obtained with a 66-item version of the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM-66) developed using Rasch analysis. SUBJECTS AND METHODS The validity of measurements obtained with the GMFM-66 was assessed by examining the hierarchy of items and the GMFM-66 scores for different groups o...
متن کاملEvaluating motor function in children with Down syndrome: validity of the GMFM.
The Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) was developed and validated originally by Russell and colleagues as an evaluative assessment of gross motor function in children with cerebral palsy (CP). The present study reports the results of reliability and validity testing of the GMFM for use with children with Down syndrome (DS). One hundred and twenty-three children with DS were assessed twice ove...
