ObjectiveTo elucidate the critical role of rehabilitation medical records (including electronic records) in rehabilitation medicine's clinical practice and management, comprehensively analyzed the structure, core content and data standards of rehabilitation medical records, to develop a standardized medical record data architecture and core dataset suitable for rehabilitation medicine and to explore the application of rehabilitation data in performance evaluation and payment. MethodsBased on the regulatory documents Basic Specifications for Medical Record Writing and Basic Specifications for Electronic Medical Records (Trial) issued by National Health Commission of China, and referencing the World Health Organization (WHO) Family of International Classifications (WHO-FICs) classifications, International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10/ICD-11), International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), and International Classification of Health Interventions (ICHI Beta-3), this study constructed the data architecture, core content and data standards for rehabilitation medical records. Furthermore, it explored the application of rehabilitation record summary sheets (home page) data in rehabilitation medical statistics and payment methods, including Diagnosis-related Groups (DRG), Diagnosis-Intervention Packet (DIP) and Case Mix Index. ResultsThis study proposed a systematic standard framework for rehabilitation medical records, covering key components such as patient demographics, rehabilitation diagnosis, functional assessment, rehabilitation treatment prescriptions, progress evaluations and discharge summaries. The research analyzed the systematic application methods and data standards of ICD-10/ICD-11, ICF and ICHI Beta-3 in the fields of medical record terminology, coding and assessment. Constructing a standardized data structure and data standards for rehabilitation medical records can significantly improve the quality of data reporting based on the medical record summary sheet, thereby enhancing the quality control of rehabilitation services, effectively supporting the optimization of rehabilitation medical insurance payment mechanisms, and contributing to the establishment of rehabilitation medical performance evaluation and payment based on DRG and DIP. ConclusionStructured rehabilitation records and data standardization are crucial tools for quality control in rehabilitation. Systematically applying the three reference classifications of the WHO-FICs, and aligning with national medical record and electronic health record specifications, facilitate the development of a standardized rehabilitation record architecture and core dataset. Standardizing rehabilitation care pathways based on the ICF methodology, and developing ICF- and ICD-11-based rehabilitation assessment tools, auxiliary diagnostic and therapeutic systems, and supporting terminology and coding systems, can effectively enhance the quality of rehabilitation records and enable interoperability and sharing of rehabilitation data with other medical data, ultimately improving the quality and safety of rehabilitation services.

ObjectiveTo explore the data standard system of electronic medical records in the field of rehabilitation, focusing on the terminology and coding standards, data structure, and key content categories of rehabilitation electronic medical records. MethodsBased on the Administrative Norms for the Application of Electronic Medical Records issued by the National Health Commission of China, the electronic medical record standard architecture issued by the International Organization for Standardization and Health Level Seven (HL7), the framework of the World Health Organization Family of International Classifications (WHO-FICs), Basic Architecture and Data Standards of Electronic Medical Records, Basic Data Set of Electronic Medical Records, and Specifications for Sharing Documents of Electronic Medical Records, the study constructed and organized the data structure, content, and data standards of rehabilitation electronic medical records. ResultsThe data structure of rehabilitation electronic medical records should strictly follow the structure of electronic medical records, including four levels (clinical document, document section, data set and data element) and four major content areas (basic information, diagnostic information, intervention information and cost information). Rehabilitation electronic medical records further integrated information related to rehabilitation needs and characteristics, emphasizing rehabilitation treatment, into clinical information. By fully applying the WHO-FICs reference classifications, rehabilitation electronic medical records could establish a standardized framework, diagnostic criteria, functional description tools, coding tools and terminology index tools for the coding, indexing, functional description, and analysis and interpretation of diseases and health problems. The study elaborated on the data structure and content categories of rehabilitation electronic medical records in four major categories, refined the granularity of reporting rehabilitation content in electronic medical records, and provided detailed data reporting guidance for rehabilitation electronic medical records. ConclusionThe standardization of rehabilitation electronic medical records is significant for improving the quality of rehabilitation medical services and promoting the rehabilitation process of patients. The development of rehabilitation electronic medical records must be based on the national and international standards. Under the general electronic medical records data structure and standards, a rehabilitation electronic medical records data system should be constructed which incorporates core data such as disease diagnosis, functional description and assessment, and rehabilitation interventions. The standardized rehabilitation electronic medical records scheme constructed in this study can support the improvement of standardization of rehabilitation electronic medical records data information.

ObjectiveTo analyze the data structure and standards of rehabilitation outpatient medical records, to provide data support for improving the quality of rehabilitation outpatient care and developing medical insurance payment policies. MethodsBased on the normative documents issued by the National Health Commission, Basic Standards for Medical Record Writing and Standards for Electronic Medical Record Sharing Documents, in accordance with the Quality Management Regulations for Outpatient (Emergency) Diagnosis and Treatment Information Pages (Trial), reference to the framework of the World Health Organization Family of International Classifications (WHO-FICs), the data framework and content of rehabilitation outpatient medical records were determined, and the data standards were discussed. ResultsThis study constructed a data framework for rehabilitation outpatient medical records, including four main components: patient basic information, visit process information, diagnosis and treatment information, and cost information. Three major reference classifications of WHO-FICs, International Classification of Diseases, International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health, and International Classification of Health Interventions,were used to establish diagnostic standards and standardized terminology, as well as coding disease diagnosis, functional description, functional assessment, and rehabilitation interventions, to improve the quality of data reporting, and level of quality control in rehabilitation. ConclusionThe structuring and standardization of rehabilitation outpatient medical records are the foundation for sharing of rehabilitation data. The using of the three major classifications of WHO-FICs is valuable for the terminology and coding of disease diagnosis, functional description and assessment, and intervention in rehabilitation outpatient medical records, which is significant for sharing and interconnectivity of rehabilitation outpatient data, as well as for optimizing the quality and safety of rehabilitation medical services.

ObjectiveTo explore the standardization of inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet, encompassing its structure, content and data standards, to enhance the standardization level of inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet, improve data reporting quality, and provide accurate data support for medical insurance payment, hospital performance evaluation, and rehabilitation discipline evaluation. MethodsBased on the relevant specifications of the National Health Commission's Basic Norms for Medical Record Writing, Specifications for Sharing Documents of Electronic Medical Records, and Quality Management and Control Indicators for Inpatient Medical Record Summary Sheet (2016 Edition), this study analyzed the structure and content of the inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet. The study systematically applied the three major reference classifications of the World Health Organization Family of International Classifications, International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10/ICD-11, ICD-9-CM-3), International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), and International Classification of Health Interventions (ICHI Beta-3), for disease diagnosis, functional description and assessment, and rehabilitation intervention, forming a standardized terminology system and coding methods. ResultsThe inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet covered four major sections: inpatient information, hospitalization information, diagnosis and treatment information, and cost information. ICD-10/ICD-11 were the standards and coding tools for admission and discharge diagnoses in the inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet. The three functional assessment tools recommended by ICD-11, the 36-item version of World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0, Brief Model Disability Survey and Generic Functioning domains, as well as ICF, were used for rehabilitation functioning assessment and the coding of outcomes. ICHI Beta-3 and ICD-9-CM-3 were used for coding surgical procedures and operations in the medical record summary sheet, and also for coding rehabilitation intervention items. ConclusionThe inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet is a summary of the relevant content of the rehabilitation medical record and a tool for reporting inpatient rehabilitation data. It needs to be refined and optimized according to the characteristics of rehabilitation, with necessary data supplemented. The application of ICD-11/ICD-10, ICF and ICHI Beta-3/ICD-9-CM-3 classification standards would comprehensively promote the accuracy of inpatient diagnosis of diseases and functions. Based on ICD-11 and ICF, relevant functional assessment result data would be added, and ICHI Beta-3/ICD-9-CM-3 should be used to code rehabilitation interventions. Improving the quality of rehabilitation medical records and inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet is an important part of rehabilitation quality control, and also lays an evidence-based data foundation for the analysis and application of inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet.

BACKGROUND:Impaired postural control is an important risk factor for falls and secondary damage in patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus.Most of the existing studies have analyzed the gait parameters of patients during straight-line walking,but few have analyzed the postural stability characteristics of patients during static and dynamic activities. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the characteristics of postural stability in elderly patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus. METHODS:Twenty-two patients clinically diagnosed with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus at the Department of Neurosurgery,Huadong Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University,Shanghai,China,from September 2022 to February 2023 were selected as the patient group,and 18 healthy accompanying family members were selected as the healthy control group.The postural stability characteristics of the subjects were assessed using the Timed Up-and-Go Test,Multi-Directional Reach Test,Berg Balance Scale,and Static Balance Function Test(reaction time,speed of movement,directional control,maximum offset distance,and endpoint travel). RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The time required to complete the Timed Up-and-Go Test was significantly longer in the patient group than in the healthy control group(P＜0.05).The results of the stretching test in the four directions of anterior,posterior,leftand right were significantly lower in the patient group than in the healthy control group(P＜0.05).The Berg Balance Scale scores in the patient group were lower than those in the healthy control group(P＜0.05).In the Static Balance Function Test,the results of reaction,movement speed,directional control,maximum offset distance and endpoint travel index were smaller in the patient group than the healthy control group(P＜0.05).To conclude,patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus exhibit overall postural control deficits,and impaired reaction and execution abilities make these patients unable to make timely and accurate motor responses in the face of disturbances from internal or external sources,resulting in postural instability and increasing the risk of falls.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of core muscles training based on spinal fine-tuning manipulation on lumbar facet joint disorders. MethodsFrom February, 2021 to February, 2022, 80 patients with lumbar facet joint disorders in Huadong Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University were randomly divided into control group (n = 40) and observation group (n = 40) randomly. Both groups received routine treatment and spinal fine-tuning manipulation, while the observation group received core muscles training in addition, for six weeks. They were assessed with Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) scores, Short-Form of McGill Pain Questionnaire and World Health Organization Quality of Life-BREF before and after treatment. The recurrence rate was observed after three months follow-up. ResultsThe scores of all the scales improved after treatment (t > 5.751, P < 0.001), and improved more in the observation group than in the control group (t > 2.051, P < 0.05). After three months follow-up, the recurrence rate was 7.89% (3/38) in the observation group, less than 28.13% (9/32) in the control group (χ² = 5.005, P = 0.025). ConclusionCombination of core muscles training may improve lumbar function, reduce lumbar pain, reduce recurrence and improve quality of life for patients with lumbar facet joint disorders.

BACKGROUND:The landing test can effectively observe the biomechanical indexes of the lower limbs of patients with chronic ankle instability,analyze the balance adjustment strategies that affect the stability of chronic ankle instability posture,and provide a valuable reference for chronic ankle instability patients to avoid re-injury and clinical rehabilitation after injury. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the effects of vision on the balance of chronic ankle instability and the changes in balance adjustment strategies by observing the kinematics and kinetics of chronic ankle instability patients during landing with and without vision. METHODS:Totally 31 patients with chronic ankle instability landed on a single leg from a 40 cm platform with their eyes open and closed.The dynamic and kinematic data during the landing process were collected using a three-dimensional motion capture system.The difference in landing between the healthy and the ill side legs under the two conditions was compared by paired t-test. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Dynamic indexes:The relative value of the peak ground reaction force in the front,rear and vertical directions of the affected ankle joint when eyes were closed was greater than that when eyes were open,and the peak ground reaction force in the vertical direction appeared later than that when eyes were open(P<0.05).(2)Kinematics indexes:The flexion angle of the knee of the healthy and affected sides when touching the ground was greater under the condition of closed eyes than under the condition of open eyes(P<0.05).The maximum flexion angle and feedforward angle of the affected knee and ankle were greater than those of the affected side with eyes open(P<0.05).The time of landing stability was longer than that of eye opening(P<0.05).(3)It is indicated that under the condition of removing visual input,the peak of ground reaction force increases,the contact angle joint increases,and the time to stabilization of chronic ankle instability is prolonged during landing in patients with chronic ankle instability,which increases the probability of landing injury.Visual maintenance of the balance of chronic ankle instability patients cannot compensate for the vestibular sense and proprioception.

Objective To explore the factors affecting the fall risks in stroke patients,and predict the level of fall risk. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted.A total of 64 stroke patients in Huadong Hospital from July,2022 to January,2024 were enrolled.The patient's demographic data,functional indicators and walking indicator,includ-ing gender,age,height,weight,stroke type,course of disease,WHO Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0(WHO-DAS 2.0),simplified Fugl-Meyer Assessment(FMA),Functional Reaching Test(FRT),Multi-Directional Reach Test(MDRT),Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA)and Timed Up and Go Test were recorded.Using the risk level of falls in stroke patients as the dependent variable,first,a univariate analysis was conducted,and then dis-criminant analysis was followed to observe the risk factors for falls in stroke patients. Results All the included stroke patients had an average age of approximately 66 years old,more males than females,and more cerebral infarction patients than cerebral hemorrhage patients.The average course of the disease was(4.50±6.02)months.There were 19,26 and 19 stroke patients with mild,moderate and severe fall risk levels,respective-ly.One-way analysis of variance showed that the scores of WHODAS 2.0,FMA,FMA-Upper Extremities(FMA-UE),FMA-Lower Extremities(FMA-LE),FRT,MDRT-Forward(MDRT-F),MDRT-Right(MDRT-R)and Mo-CA were significantly differenct among stroke patients with different fall risk levels(F>2.277,P<0.05).Dis-criminant analysis showed that patients with different fall risk levels had different functional parameter equa-tions,using the retrospective method,the accuracy rates of Fisher discriminant function and Bayes discriminant function were 75%and 78.1%,and the misjudgment rates were 25%and 21.9%,respectively. Conclusion Activity and participation ability,upper and lower extremity motor function,stability limits of the forward and right direction and cognitive function are related factors to the risk level of falls.It could predicte the risk lev-el of falls by establishing a discriminant function through functional indicators.

ObjectiveTo construct a framework of PICO for occupational therapy to improve upper extremity function in stroke patients based on World Health Organization Family of International Classifications (WHO-FICs), and to analyze the functional outcome of major occupational therapies to improve upper extremity in stroke. MethodsUsing the WHO-FICs framework, the databases such as Web of Science, PubMed, CNKI and SinoMed were searched for literature related to occupational therapy interventions for upper extremity function in stroke patients from the date of establishment to October, 2022, and the contents of the literature were extracted for a systematic review. ResultsTen randomized controlled trials from six countries were finally included, involving 382 participants (≥ 18 years old). The literatures were mainly from the fields of rehabilitation medicine, physics and rehabilitation medicine, neuroscience, bioengineering medicine, occupational therapy and other research fields, and were published mainly after 2013. The quality of the included literatures was evaluated using Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) scale with a mean score of 7.5. Based on the WHO-FICs framework, the types of diseases included intracerebral haemorrhage (8B00), cerebral ischemic stroke (8B11), subarachnoid hemorrhage (8B01), abnormality of tonus and reflex (MB47), and hemiplegia (MB53). The main dysfunctions of the upper extremity after stroke included mobility of joint functions (b710), stability of joint functions (b715), muscle power functions (b730), muscle tone functions (b735), motor reflex functions (b750), control of voluntary movement functions (b760), involuntary movement functions (b765). Activity and participation included activity of upper limb, such as lifting and carrying objects (d430), hand and arm use (d445), and fine hand use (d440); and the daily life activities and social participation, such as self-care (d510-d570), domestic life (d610-d660), major life areas (d810-d879), community, social and civic life (d910-d950). Therapeutic interventions on body functions included electrical stimulation of muscle functions (MU2.SC.BP), assistance and guidance of exercise for involuntary movement reaction (MV2.PG.ZZ); therapeutic interventions involving activity and participation were training in lifting and carrying (SIA.PH.ZZ), training in fine hand use (SIG.PH.ZZ), exercises of arm and hand use (SIJ.PH.ZZ), self care (SM1-SMH), household tasks (SO2-SOD), and playing games (SXD.PH.ZZ); 15 to 60 minutes a time, three to ten times a week, for three to eight weeks, in hospital or at home. The outcomes of the intervention were divided into three levels. At the body function level, patients had improved neuromotor conduction function, reflex function, casual motor control, coordination and speed, joint mobility, and grip strength. At the activity and participation level, there were enhancements in upper limb mobility and speed, fine hand function and speed, frequency and quality of upper limb activity participation, and the capacities of daily living and reduced difficulty in daily activity tasks. In terms of whole functioning, patients had acquired quality of life and well-being and acquainted a feeling of pleasure and accomplishment. ConclusionA PICO framework was constructed for occupational therapy based on WHO-FICs. The health conditions included intracerebral haemorrhage, cerebral ischemic stroke, subarachnoid hemorrhage, abnormality of tonus and reflex, and hemiplegia. Upper extremity motor dysfunction mainly included dysfunction of voluntary motor control, low or hyperactive motor reflexes, abnormalities in muscle tone, impaired muscle coordination, poor stability of joint activities, and reduced muscle strength, etc. Activity limitation and participation restriction were manifested as functioning in the fields of arm and hand activity participation, fine manual activity, and activities of daily living and social participation. Therapeutic interventions at body function level included brain-computer interface-based functional electrical stimulation and unimanual mirror therapy; therapeutic interventions at activity and participation level included action observation training, bimanual mirror therapy, task-oriented training, bilateral arm training and upper extremity robotics training. The health and functional benefits included the improvements in upper extremity motor function, upper extremity mobility and participation levels, activities of daily living and social participation, and quality of life and well-being.

Objective To analyze gait characteristics of patients with spastic cerebral palsy (CP) before and after functional selective posterior rhizotomy (FSPR) surgery, so as to evaluate curative effects of the surgery objective ly. MethodsFifteen patients with spastic CP to be treated by FSPR were selected. The VICON three-dimensional (3D) motion analysis system and AMTI 3D force plates were used to collect and analyze the spatiotemporal gait parameters, kinematic and dynamic parameters before and after FSPR surgery. Results After the surgery, the left and right support phases were longer,and the left-side step length was significantly larger. The step height, velocity and the max displacement of center of gravity (COG) in coronal plane were smaller than those before surgery.The sagittal plane angle (flexion and extension angle) of the knee during initial landing was significantly increased, while no significant differences were found in that of the hip and ankle.The range of motion (ROM) of the left/right hip, knee and ankle in sagittal plane was increased to some extent during walking, with statistical differences. The ROM of right ankle in coronal plane was also increased obviously. The minimum flexion angle of the right knee and the maximum plantar flexion angle of the left/right ankle were significantly reduced. The maximum vertical forces of left and right support phases were significantly increased, while no significant differences were found in torque of lower limbs. Conclusions The 3D gait analysis can be used to evaluate the effect of FSPR on patients with spastic CP. The spasticity of patients with spastic CP is relieved after FSPR surgery, and the spatiotemporal gait parameters and kinematics parameters are improved significantly. But the improvement of dynamic parameters was not obvious, and further rehabilitation treatment is needed.
