To translate into Russian and adapt the Edinburgh Cognitive and Behavioral ALS Screen (ECAS) for patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
Medical care for ALS patients requires participation of a multidisciplinary team. More than one third of patients with ALS suffer from cognitive and behavioral disturbances, and it influences decisions of the team, patients and family. The scale for measuring of these disturbances should be rapid and understandable for evaluation and take into account the specificity of cognitive and behavioral impairments in ALS.
ECAS met these criteria and allows screening examination of patients with ALS at different stages of movement impairment.
将爱丁堡认知与行为性肌萎缩侧索硬化症筛查量表(ECAS)翻译成俄语,并使其适用于肌萎缩侧索硬化症(ALS)患者。
ALS患者的医疗护理需要多学科团队的参与。超过三分之一的ALS患者存在认知和行为障碍,这会影响团队、患者及其家属的决策。用于评估这些障碍的量表应该快速且易于理解,同时要考虑到ALS患者认知和行为障碍的特殊性。
ECAS符合这些标准,能够对处于运动功能障碍不同阶段的ALS患者进行筛查。
