ISAGODA, A. and NAKAMURA, R. Fitness of the Formulae of Simplified Version of Recovery Evaluating System-3 (RES-3) for Stroke Patients. Tohoku J. Exp. Med., 1995, 177 (3), 263-269 - Using the formulae for prediction of functional status at 4, 8 and 12 weeks after admission in the stroke patient (simplified version of Recovery Evaluating System-3; RES-3) and demographic data at the admission of 128 stroke patients, the estimated scores of four measures, Motor Age Score (MOA), Manual Function Score (MFS), Barthel Index (BI) and Mini-Mental State (MMS), were obtained. Fitness of the formulae was tested in terms of the agreement between the estimated and the measured scores. The results indicated that the differences between the measured and the estimated scores were statistically not significant except BI. The measured scores of BI were 3 to 5 points high compared to the estimated ones. When the confidence limits of the differences were examined at a confidence coefficient of 95%, they were within 5% of the full score for MOA, MFS and MMS, and were within 10% for BI. Accordingly, by setting the allowable limit to 5% of the full score around the means, the fitness of prediction would be more than a probability of 95%. The formulae of simplified version of RES-3 were practically useful. - stroke; medical rehabilitation; functional status; prediction
