Objective: To provide clinicians and researchers information regarding (1) the existing outcome measures to assess the loss of functionality in the activities of daily living (ADLs) of patients with stroke and (2) the presence of these assessment tools in the Italian context. Study Design and Setting: For this Systematic Review Medline, CINAHL, and PsycINFO were searched for articles published up to 4 July 2017. Two authors independently identified eligible studies on the basis of predefined inclusion criteria and extracted data. Study quality and risk of bias were assessed using the Quality Assessment Tool for Observational Cohort and Cross-Sectional Studies. Results: Of 370 publications identified and screened, 46 studies fell within the inclusion criteria and were critically reviewed. The most commonly used tools were: the Frenchay Activities Index and the Functional Independence Measure. Conclusion: This review has emphasized the need for agreement among researchers as to which tool must be studied in depth or adapted to other national contexts in order to develop universal norms and standards.

“…A few studies have chosen the Jebsen-Taylor hand function test (JTHFT) to evaluate the effect of motor function recovery because of (1) the standardized tasks relative to norms; (2) everyday activities tasks; (3) using readily available materials [36]. In our results, there was no change in the total scores of JTHFT, but the results show the small improvements in writing and stacking checkers test of JTHFT after 10 days of intervention.…”

Objective: Our objective was to investigate the effect of the rehabilitation system using augmented reality (AR) on upper extremity motor performance of patients with stroke. Methods: The system using AR applying mirror therapy mechanism provides the intervention protocol for the patient with hemiplegia after stroke. The system consists of a patient positioning tool (a chair), a white surface table, an image acquisition unit, an image processing unit, an image displaying unit, an arm holder, a Velcro-strap, and two blue circle stickers. To assess the feasibility of our system in motor function recovery, a stroke patient was recruited to receive the AR intervention. The treatment was performed two times a day for ten minutes over two weeks (ten days of treating weeks), except for the time of installation, calibration, and three minute breaks. Jebsen Taylor hand function test and Arm Motor Fugl-Meyer assessment were used as primary and secondary outcome measures, respectively, to evaluate the effect of motor function recovery. Additionally, stroke impact scale, Korean version-Modified Barthel Index (K-MBI), active range of motion of wrist joint (ROM), and the grasp force in Newtons were measured. Participants’ feedback and adverse effects were recorded as well. Results: Motor function improvements were exhibited in wrist and hand subtest of Arm Motor Fugl-Meyer (baseline: 19; post-intervention: 23), proximal arm subtest of Fugl-Meyer (baseline: 31; post-intervention: 34), ROM (extending ROM: 10° and 3° for flexion and extension, repeatedly), stroke impact scale (baseline: 46; post-intervention: 54), K-MBI (baseline: 92; post-intervention: 95), nine-hole pegboard (baseline: 30 s; post-intervention: 25 s), and grasp force in Newtons (baseline: 12.7; post-intervention: 17.7). However, the adverse effects were reported after the intervention. Conclusion: The system using AR applying mirror therapy mechanism demonstrated the feasibility in motor function recovery for the stroke patient.

“…The aspect of trustworthiness also plays an important role in the validation of clinical studies, as already pointed out by Lincoln and Guba (1985) [24], see also [79] (p 109 ff). However, financial conflicts of interest were not declared in the studies included in this review.…”

Outcome Measures to Evaluate Upper and Lower Extremity: Which Scores are Valid?

et al. 2019

Objective In orthopaedics and trauma surgery scores are frequently used to assess treatment outcomes. The purpose of the review is to create an overview analysing the content of validity studies of frequently utilized scores for upper and lower extremity. Methods Commonly used outcome measures to assess clinical outcome of upper (n = 19) and lower (n = 22) extremity were included. For each of the scores a comprehensive search in several databases (Medline, PubMed, google scholar) were performed to identify validation studies. The COSMIN-Checklist (COSMIN: Consensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement Instruments) introduced by Mokkink et al. were used to analyse systematically the methodological quality of the validation studies. Results Validity, objectivity and reliability were not routinely considered and addressed in validation studies. The score related validation studies did not include all defined criteria of the COSMIN-Checklist. Six scores of the upper extremity and four scores of the lower extremity are not adequately validated. The best validated scores of the upper extremity is Oxford Shoulder Score (OSS) and for the lower extremity Hip Disabilities and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS) as well as Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Score (WOMAC). Conclusion There is no gold standard for the content-comprehension of validation studies due to the structure of the original study. The more criteria were tested the more informative and significant the outcome measure is. However some scores, such as Neer and Castaing Score, that lack validation are still being successfully used in research and clinical practice. The present review provides an overview of frequently used score in orthopaedics and trauma surgery and their grade of validity.
