Gait analysis
Gait analysis is a process of measuring and evaluating the walking patterns of patients by using surface electromyograph and motion analysis system.
Time frame: 1 hour
Fugl-Meyer assessment for lower extremity (FMA)
The Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) is a stroke-specific, performance-based impairment index. It is designed to assess motor functioning, balance, sensation and joint functioning in patients with post-stroke hemiplegia. It is applied clinically and in research to determine disease severity, describe motor recovery, and to plan and assess treatment.
Time frame: 20 minutes
The Timed Up and Go test (TUG)
The Timed Up and Go test (TUG) is a simple test used to assess a person's mobility and requires both static and dynamic balance. It uses the time that a person takes to rise from a chair, walk three meters, turn around, walk back to the chair, and sit down.
Time frame: 10 minutes
10 meter walk test (10MWT)
Measure of self selected speeds by measuring the time it takes an individual to walk 10 meters. To perform the test, patient walks 10 meters (33 ft) and the time is measured when the leading foot crosses the start line and the finish line. The instructions are: "Please walk this distance at your normal pace when I say go."
Time frame: 5 minutes
Manual Muscle Test (MMT)
Manual muscle testing (MMT) is a procedure for the evaluation of the function and strength of individual muscles and muscle groups based on the effective performance of a movement in relation to the forces of gravity and manual resistance.
Time frame: 15 minutes
Range of Motion (ROM)
This platform is for informational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional.
Range of Motion (ROM) testing is the measurement of movement around a specific joint or body part.
Time frame: 15 minutes
Functional Ambulation Classification (FAC)
The Functional Ambulation Categories (FAC) is a functional walking test that evaluates ambulation ability. This 6-point scale assesses ambulation status by determining how much human support the patient requires when walking, regardless of whether or not they use a personal assistive device.
Time frame: 10 minutes
Modified Bathel index (MBI)
The MBI is a measure of activities of daily living, which shows the degree of independence of a patient from any assistance. It covers 10 domains of functioning (activities): bowel control, bladder control, as well as help with grooming, toilet use, feeding, transfers, walking, dressing, climbing stairs, and bathing.
Time frame: 10 minutes
