Abstract:
Presented in this paper is a report on the Quadriplegia Index of Function(QIF) in usewith 16 cases of quadriplegic patients.Compared with the Barthel Index and Japan ADL Scale,QIF wasfound to be more sensitive and effective to document the small but significant funtional gains made byquadriplegics during medical rehabilitation,therefore,authors suggest that QIF should be widely usedin the rehabilitation evaluation of quadriplegic patients.
