Abstract:
Objective:To apply World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS 2.0) as a tool to assess the functioning of the old patients after stroke. Methods:From August, 2018 to February, 2019, 107 old inpatients with stroke were divided into four groups according to the course of disease: ≤ 6 months, 7-12 months, 13-18 months and 19-24 months. They were assessed with WHODAS 2.0 and modified Barthel Index (MBI) at admission and discharge. Results:The scores of both MBI and total WHODAS 2.0 improved at discharge (t > 2.481, P < 0.001). WHODAS 2.0 total scores decreased with the course of disease (F = 3.444, P < 0.05), but no significant decrease was found in the domains of Getting Along, Life Activities and Participation (F < 2.410, P > 0.05). WHODAS 2.0 total scores negatively correlated with MBI score (r = -0.540, P < 0.001), except the scores of domains of Life Activities and Participation (r = 0.184, P > 0.05). Conclusion:WHODAS 2.0 can be used as a tool to assess and follow up the function and disability of old stroke patients.
