摘要: To evaluate the validity and responsiveness of Spinal Cord Index Function (SIF), a new instrument on activity level, measuring ability to perform various transfers in non-walking patients with spinal cord lesion. Injuries Unit, Sahlgrenska University Hospital, Gothenburg, Sweden. Twenty-nine lesion classified as grade A, B or C according American Injury Association/International Medical Society paraplegia classification were included. Each patient was evaluated from acute phase until discharge, every second week, by their physiotherapist, SIF Swedish physiotherapy clinical outcome variables (S-COVS). determine validity, Spearman's rho correlation coefficient calculated between total scores S-COVS, determination calculated. Responsiveness determined computing effect sizes. S-COVS 0.933 0.87. The size for 9.1. results study prove that is valid sensitive instrument, which will be useful physiotherapists goal-planning programs evaluating progress during patient's rehabilitation. could also used research functional at follow-ups.
