研究概览
简要总结
This study is an observational study that aims to validate the Elderly Mobility Scale (EMS) in Italian (EMS-I) by comparison with the Barthel Index scale, already validated in Italian. Furthermore this study wants to evaluate the inter-rater reliability comparing the scores assigned to the same sample of patients by two independent evaluators. The study population includes 50 elderly in-patients eligible for physiotherapy.
详细描述
This study is an observational study that aims to validate the Elderly Mobility Scale (EMS) in Italian (EMS-I) by comparison with the Barthel Index scale, already validated in Italian.
The Elderly Mobility Scale (EMS) is considered a suitable tool to assess basic motor function in hospitalized geriatric patients. It has shown good psychometric characteristics.
The study process requires a standardized translation protocol, including forward and backward translation. The protocol provides enrollment of 50 geriatric in-patients eligible for physiotherapy admitted to IRCCS-INRCA Hospital. Two physiotherapists independently evaluate the same enrolled patient with Italian EMS (EMS-I) and Barthel Index.

结局指标
主要结局
Italian Elderly Mobility Scale (EMS) in Italian (EMS-I) validity
时间窗: baseline
Elderly Mobility Scale (EMS) is a validated assessment tool test used by physiotherapists to assess the level of mobility in frail older adults. The total score ranges from 0 (totally dependent) to 20 (independent mobility). The Italian version (EMS-I) has required a standardized translation protocol, including forward and backward translation. EMS-I will be validated by comparison with the Barthel Index scale, already validated in Italian.
