BMC MUSCULOSKEL DISORD , 2005, vol. 6, p. 40-47 Doc n°: 121613 Localisation : Documentation IRR Descripteurs : DE831 - PIED BOT VARUS EQUIN, JQ - CIF In most clubfoot studies, the outcome instruments used are designed to evaluate classification or long-term cross-sectional results. Variables deal mainly with factors on body function/structure level. Wide scorings intervals and total sum scores increase the risk that important changes and information are not detected. Studies of the reliability, validity and responsiveness of these instruments are sparse. The lack of an instrument for longitudinal follow-up led the investigators to develop the Clubfoot Assessment Protocol ( CAP). The aim of this article is to introduce and describe the CAP and evaluate the items inter- and intra reliability in relation to patient age. Methods: The CAP was created from 22 items divided between body function/structure ( three subgroups) and activity ( one subgroup) levels according to the International Classification of Function, Disability and Health (ICF). The focus is on item and subgroup development. Two experienced examiners assessed 69 clubfeet in 48 children who had a median age of 2.1 years Langue : ANGLAIS Tiré à part : OUI |
