Study Overview
Brief Summary
The overall aim of the study is to assess whether each outcome measures the same aspect of overall functioning or contributes with different aspects. More specifically, the aim of this study is to investigate the correlation between each single instrument.
During study period all patients presenting at our clinic will be offered to participate in the study. Patients will be included in the study when referred to the department of Social Medicine and providing written informed consent to participate in the study. Inclusion will continue until 100 patients have completed an AMPS test. All participants will, apart from standard procedure, be asked to complete:
- An AMPS-test
- ADL-Q (Questionnaire concerning Activities of Daily Living)
- ADL-I (Interview based questionnaire concerning Activites of Daily Living)
As standard procedure all participants will also perform/complete:
- 30 seconds chair stand test (30sCST)
- Hand grip strength (HGS)
- Evaluation of ambulation (Cumulated Ambulation Score /CAS)
- WORQ (Work Rehabilitation Questionnaire)
To obtain the aim of the study correlation-analysis will be performed to investigate the relationship between each included instruments.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Assessment of Motor and Process Skills (AMPS)
Time Frame: Within 21 days from baseline
Based on observation of 2 ADL tasks the quality of 16 motor and 20 process skills are scored on a four-point ordinal scale. Using Rasch analysis the raw ordinal scores are converted into two overall ADL ability measures, representing ADL motor and ADL process ability expressed in logits.
Secondary Outcomes
- Cumulated Ambulation Score (CAS)(Baseline)
- 30 seconds chair stand test(Baseline)
- Work Rehabilitation Questionnaire (WORQ)(The questionnaire is responded one time during a periode ranging from 7 days prior to baseline until 21 days after baseline)
- ADL-I(Within 21 days from baseline)
- Hand Grip strength(Baseline)
- ADL-Q(Within 21 days from baseline)
