From the Danish Multiple Sclerosis (MS) population a representative sample of 249 patients with a clinically definite diagnosis of MS has been tested by use of the Functional System Scale and Disability Status Scale of Kurtzke and the Incapacity and Environmental Status Scales of the IFMSS. Validity and reliability of the items and the properties of summed scales have been estimated. A statistical evaluation showed that generally the Incapacity and the Environmental Status Scales worked well. Problems encountered with the use of the Incapacity scale are mentioned and on statistical grounds a proposal of an incapacity scale with fewer items is presented.
从丹麦多发性硬化症(MS)患者群体中,选取了249例临床确诊为MS的患者作为代表性样本,使用库尔茨克功能系统量表和残疾状态量表以及国际功能、残疾和健康分类(ICF)的失能和环境状态量表进行了测试。对各条目效度和信度以及合计量表的特性进行了评估。统计评估表明,总体而言,失能和环境状态量表效果良好。文中提到了使用失能量表时遇到的问题,并基于统计学依据提出了一个条目较少的失能量表建议。
