Evaluation of Gait Performance in Children With Neuromuscular Diagnoses
4. november 2020 oppdatert av: University Children's Hospital, Zurich
Evaluation of the Gait Performance Measures 'Functional Mobility Scale' and 'Gillette Functional Assessment Questionnaire' in Children With Neuromuscular Diagnoses
The aims of this project are to evaluate the psychometric properties of the German versions of the two performance questionnaires 'Functional Mobility Scale' (FMS) and 'Gillette Functional Assessment Questionnaire - walking scale' (GFAQ) in children between 6-18 years with a neuromuscular diagnosis.

Detaljert beskrivelse
The German versions of the two questionnaires 'Functional Mobility Scale' (FMS) and 'Gillette Functional Assessment Questionnaire - walking scale' (GFAQ) are evaluated in terms of construct validity, inter- and intra-rater reliability as well as responsiveness in children with a neuromuscular diagnosis, who absolve an inpatient stay in the rehabilitation center of the University Chilren's Hospital Zurich, Switzerland.

Functional Mobility Scale (FMS)
Tidsramme: Participants will be followed for the duration of the rehabilitation stay, an expected average of 12 weeks, with measurements at admission and discharge.
|
The questionnaire is filled in independently by the parents, the primary nurse as well as the physiotherapist of each child.

Global Rating Scale (GRS)
Tidsramme: Participants will be followed for the duration of the rehabilitation stay, an expected average of 12 weeks, with only one measurement at discharge.
|
A global rating on the perceived change of the child's functional mobility over the rehabilitation period and whether this change is perceived as meaningful or not; on a 5-point Likert scale, scored by the parents and the physiotherapist.

Functional Independence Measure for Children (WeeFIM)
Tidsramme: Participants will be followed for the duration of the rehabilitation stay, an expected average of 12 weeks, with measurements at admission and discharge.
|
The WeeFIM-Item Locomotion (Walking) is scored by the primary nurse.
|
Participants will be followed for the duration of the rehabilitation stay, an expected average of 12 weeks, with measurements at admission and discharge.

10-Meter Walk Test (10MWT)
Tidsramme: Participants will be followed for the duration of the rehabilitation stay, an expected average of 12 weeks, with only one measurement at discharge.
|
For the evaluation of the construct validity of the FMS and the GFAQ, the 10MWT comfortable speed as well as maximal speed will be performed shortly before discharge on a 14-meter long track with standardized instructions.
|
Participants will be followed for the duration of the rehabilitation stay, an expected average of 12 weeks, with only one measurement at discharge.
|
|
6-Minute walk test (6MinWT)
Tidsramme: Participants will be followed for the duration of the rehabilitation stay, an expected average of 12 weeks, with only one measurement at discharge.
|
For the evaluation of the construct validity of the FMS and the GFAQ, the 6MinWT is performed shortly before discharge on a 30-meter long track with standardized instructions.
|
Participants will be followed for the duration of the rehabilitation stay, an expected average of 12 weeks, with only one measurement at discharge.
