Lead Sponsor: Rehaklinik Zihlschlacht

Brief Summary: Not available

Detailed Description: Not available

Recruitment & Eligibility

Status: Pending

Sex: All

Target Recruitment: 280

Inclusion Criteria

1. Inpatient stay in the rehabilitation clinic due to CNS disease
2. Age at least 18 years

Exclusion Criteria

1. No physiotherapeutic routine data available. This is e.g. the case when the patient's medical condition does not allow physical examination by a physiotherapist or such an examination would endanger the patient. Also in patients with severe aphasia / apathy, apraxia and / or other psycho-cognitive symptoms, motor examinations may not be possible due to the lack of / limited understanding of the task.
2. Patients who refuse to use their health-related personal data for research purposes.

Study & Design

Study Type: observational

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
In order to determine the psychometric properties of these measuring instruments of mobility, the following investigations are carried out. All analyzes are informed by the methodological recommendations of the COSMIN group [COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement Instruments; Terwee et al. 2007; de Vet et al. 2011; Mokkink et al. 2010].<br><br>Primary outcome:<br>Prognostic validity: Calculation of the prognostic validity (criterion approach) of the individual measuring instruments with regard to the following health-related outcomes at the time 4 weeks after admission: fall frequency, modified ranking scale, Barthel index, length of stay, ability to walk, discharge destination).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Secondary outcomes:<br><br>Construct validity: Method of hypothesis testing (correlations of measuring instruments among each other) as well as know-groups-validity analyzes.<br><br>Sensitivity to change: Repetition of tests at follow-up 4 weeks after admission to the clinic as well as immediately before leaving the clinic plus recording of a Global Rating of Change (assessment of the subjectively perceived change in patient mobility). Calculating responsiveness using the construct and anchor-based approach.<br><br>Interpretability: Floor and ceiling effects are described descriptively. Calculation of the minimal important change values for all measurement instruments (MIC) using anchor-based methods.
