Test-retest reliability of Motricity Index strength assessments for lower extremity in post stroke hemiparesis
Background: The Motricity Index was used to measure strength in upper and lower extremities after stroke. The weighted score based on the ordinal 6 point scale of Medical Research Council was used to measure maximal isometric muscle strength. There is dearth of articles dealing with the reliability of this method. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the test retest reliability o...

متن کاملAssessment of strength deficits in eight paretic upper extremity muscle groups of stroke patients with hemiplegia.
This retrospective investigation was undertaken to describe and compare the initial and discharge strength deficits of eight upper extremity muscle groups of 42 patients who were hemiparetic secondary to cerebrovascular accidents (CVAs). Static strengths of the eight muscle groups were measured using a hand-held dynamometer, and strength deficits were calculated against the side ipsilateral to ...

متن کاملPredicting recovery of bilateral upper extremity muscle strength after stroke.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the recovery pattern of bilateral upper extremity muscle strength and to predict the recovery of strength early after stroke using a logarithmic regression model. DESIGN Longitudinal study. SUBJECTS Twenty-one inpatients with post-stroke hemiparesis were enrolled. The mean time after stroke event was 7.1 days (standard deviation (SD) 3.5 days). METHODS Bilateral e...
