Abstract:
Object. The Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) is widely used to assess outcome after head injury, but is recognized as having a number of shortcomings that are highlighted and investigated in this study. The authors pursued two goals: 1) investigating the practicality of using a standard set of questions as part of a structured interview to assign GOS scores, and 2) studying the role of preinjury problems in confounding postinjury assessment of disability. Methods. Several of the major limitations of the GOS appear to arise from the use of a format that encourages impressionistic ratings. In the pre

Abstract:
Abstract Background and Purpose. The quality of a disability scale should dictate when it is used. The purposes of this study were to examine the validity of a global rating of change as a reflection of meaningful change in patient status and to compare the measurement properties of a modified Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire (OSW) and the Quebec Back Pain Disability Scale (QUE). Subjects. Sixty-seven patients with acute, work-related low back pain referred for physical therapy participated in the study. Methods. The 2 scales were administered initially and after 4 weeks of phys

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the level of correlation among pain, disability and physical impairment scores in chronic whiplash-associated disorder patients.SUBJECTS: Adults with chronic whiplash-associated disorder referred for secondary independent assessment.METHODS: Forty-four subjects (16 males, 28 females) were included in the sample. Self-rated pain was measured on a five-point verbal rating scale. Self-rated disability was measured using the Neck Disability Index (NDI) and the Disability Rating Index (DRI). Physical impairment was measured as active cervical ranges of motion obtained with

Abstract:
Background Self-reported disability and pain intensity are commonly used outcomes in patients with cervicogenic headaches. However, there is a paucity of psychometric evidence to support the use of these self-report outcomes for individuals treated with cervicogenic headaches. Therefore, it is unknown if these measures are reliable, responsive, or result in meaningful clinically important changes in this patient population.

Abstract:
Context: A simulated horseback riding (SHR) exercise is effective for improvement of pain and functional disability, but its comparative effectiveness with the other is unknown. Objective: The authors aimed to demonstrate the effect of a SHR exercise in people with chronic low back pain. Design: A randomized controlled trial. Settings: Community and university campus. Participants: A total of 48 participants with chronic low back pain were divided into 2 groups, and SHR exercises (n = 24) or stabilization (STB) exercises (n = 24) were performed.

Abstract:
A reliable prototype index, Three Ratings of Involuntary Admissibility (TRIAD), was developed to reflect the way psychiatric emergency room clinicians apply legal criteria for involuntary commitment. The interrater reliability coefficients—Pearson's r—of the TRIAD system for rating patients are 0.94, danger-to-self score; 0.89, danger-to-others score; 0.77, grave-disability score; and 0.89, total-admissibility score. TRIAD scores accounted for 82 percent of 89 disposition decisions in two metropolitan county hospital psychiatric emergency rooms. Study results indicate that (1) psychiatric emer
