Validation of FIM-MDS crosswalk conversion algorithm.
In this study, we performed a validation analysis of a crosswalk that converts Functional Independence Measure (FIM) scores to Minimum Data Set (MDS) scores and vice versa in order to achieve score compatibility. Data from 2,130 patients were obtained from the Department of Veteran Affairs' Austin Automation Center. The conversion algorithm was tested at the (1) individual patient level, (2) cl...
متن کاملTranslating measures across the continuum of care: using Rasch analysis to create a crosswalk between the Functional Independence Measure and the Minimum Data Set.
Setting-specific outcome measures present a major barrier to monitoring patient progress across the continuum of care. This study demonstrated Rasch analysis for the creation of a crosswalk between the Functional Independence Measure (FIM), which is used in inpatient rehabilitation, and the Minimum Data Set (MDS), which is used in skilled nursing facilities. To create the crosswalk, we used dat...
