What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Functional Ambulatory Category (FAC)
Time Frame: 2 weeks
The Functional Ambulation Categories (FAC) is a functional walking test that evaluates ambulation ability. This 6-point scale assesses ambulation status by determining how much human support the patient requires when walking, regardless of whether or not they use a personal assistive device
2 weeks
EQ-5D
Time Frame: 2 weeks
EQ-5D is a standardized instrument for measuring generic health status. The EQ-5D descriptive system is a preference-based HRQL measure with one question for each of the five dimensions that include mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression.
2 weeks
Modified Barthel index (MBI)
Time Frame: 2 weeks
Modified Barthel ADL index Measure of physical disability used widely to assess behaviour relating to activities of daily living for patients with disabling conditions. It measures what patients do in practice.
2 weeks
