INT REHABIL MED , 1986, vol. 8, n° 2, p. 74-78 Doc n°: 27614 Localisation : Documentation IRR Descripteurs : AF21 - ACCIDENTS VASCULAIRES CEREBRAUX Tests of upper limb function and an activities of daily living (ADL) index were selected to measure recovery following stroke. Thirty stroke patients were assessed at intervals for up to 6 months to 1 year post-stroke using the battery. The results showed the ADL index is insensitive to upper limb recovery. All the tests measured recovery in some of the patients after 24 weeks post-stroke. Since the presentation and recovery of patients was variable, it is argued that it is necessary to offer a selection of assessment tests to measure recovery and to aid treatment planning.
