Abstract:
Objective To test the validity of the Stroke Impairment Assessment Set (SIAS) among the subjects with acute stroke. Methods Forty two patients with acute stroke were assessed by use of SIAS, Brunnstrom movement assessment, Fugl Meyer movement assessment and Functional Independence Measure (FIM). The correlations among SIAS motor function item scores, Brunnstrom grades and Fugl Meyer scores and the correlation between SIAS total scores and FIM scores were studied. Results There were significantly positive correlations among SIAS motor function item scores, Brunnstrom grades and Fugl Meyer scores ( r =0.7440-0.9426). A significantly positive correlation also existed between the SIAS total score and FIM score( r =0.9231). The intra class correlation within SIAS was significant( r =0.8892-0.9787). The regression equations could be made between SIAS motor function scores and Fugl Meyer scores, SIAS total scores and FIM scores. Conclusion SIAS is a valid instrument when it is used to assess the subjects with acute stroke.
