Twenty-five rheumatoid arthritic patients were studied to determine the extent of independence and functional requirements necessary to use public bus transportation in Philadelphia. To measure the extent of independence, a functional assessment scale was developed that evaluates 19 bus activities, each according to a four-point scale. Of the 11 subjects who stated that they used the public bus prior to admission, only 4 were found to be able to use the public bus independently at the time of evaluation. Ascending, descending and motion activities provided considerable difficulty for the sample population. Functional requirements of boarding and disembarking the bus are described in detail.
对25名类风湿性关节炎患者进行了研究，以确定在费城使用公共巴士交通所需的独立程度和功能需求。为了衡量独立程度，开发了一种功能评估量表，该量表根据四分制对19项巴士活动进行评估。在11名表示入院前使用公共巴士的受试者中，只有4人在评估时被发现能够独立使用公共巴士。上车、下车和移动活动给样本人群带来了相当大的困难。详细描述了上下巴士的功能需求。
