Normative Scores for the Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory in Norway

Abstract

Identifying potential differences when using an instrument in another culture is important to avoid a risk of over- or underestimating a child's capability. In addition, item response patterns are required to make national normative scores clinically useful.

External validity of the Both Hands Assessment for evaluating bimanual performance in children with bilateral cerebral palsy

“…12,13,21 Self-care skills were assessed using the Norwegian version of the PEDI. 22 In addition, children's gross motor function was classified using the Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS).…”

Differences in evaluation of functional skills of the Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory (PEDI) between normally developing children and children with cerebral palsy

“…However, the PEDI was developed and designed based on the data on normally developing children in the United States. As has been reported in the Dutch version of the PEDI, cultural differences are assumed to have a certain influence on the daily activities of children and hence the issue has been examined in Germany, Saudi Arabia, and Norway [10][11][12]. Additionally, because the PEDI was designed for normally developing children, some movements that these children can perform easily may constitute an item of a high difficulty level for children with cerebral palsy, which may decrease their rating for some items.…”

Instrumentos De Evaluación Fisioterapéutica en Población Adulta Y Pediátrica Utilizadas en La Práctica Clínica

“…En adultos, se reporta el uso de escalas como escala de Tinetti, escala FIM (Functional independence measure), Time up and go, índice de Barthel y fugl meyer, estas predicen la funcionalidad en miembros superiores e inferiores en actividades como agarres funcionales, alcances funcionales y actividades de la vida diaria (Canbek, 2013) (Gautschi, 2016) (Hwang, 2016) (Kato, 2007) (Lugo, 2007) (Lundquist, 2016) (Ohura, 2014) (Oveisgharan, 2006) (Page, 2012) (Panella, 2008) Instrumentos de evaluación fisioterapéutica en población adulta y pediátrica Utilizadas en la práctica clínica; una revisión de la literatura presenten algún tipo de discapacidad que altere la funcionalidad y la realización de actividades de la vida diaria. Adicionalmente, estas escalas poseen índices de validez y confiabilidad altos para su utilización en la práctica clínica (Berg, 2016) (Compagnone, 2014) (Dumas, 2015) (Eliasson, 2006) (Graham, 2004) (Grilli, 2006) (Lee J. W., 2015) (Mancini, 2016) (Schulze, 2014) (Wilson, 2014) (Ziviani, 2001).…”
