OBJECTIVES
Evaluating functional level of persons with diagnosed or suspected dementia is an important part of occupational therapy. The importance of the environment is often highlighted. We investigated the ability of clients with suspected dementia to perform instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs) in the clinic versus in their homes.
METHOD
We used the Assessment of Motor and Process Skills (AMPS) to measure the motor and process skill ability of 19 clients with suspected dementia.
RESULTS
Using two-tailed paired t-tests, we found no overall difference in IADL motor or process performance between the clinic and home setting. However, of the 19 clients, 6 had motor ability measures, whereas 5 had process ability measures that differed significantly between the two settings.
CONCLUSION
The results suggest that if we want to know how a person with suspected dementia performs in IADLs in a specific environment we should test him or her in that environment.
目的
评估已确诊或疑似患有痴呆症患者的功能水平是职业治疗的重要组成部分。环境的重要性常常被强调。我们调查了疑似痴呆症患者在诊所和家中进行日常生活工具性活动（IADLs）的能力。
方法
我们使用运动和过程技能评估（AMPS）来测量19名疑似痴呆症患者的运动和过程技能能力。
结果
通过双尾配对t检验，我们发现诊所和家庭环境下IADL运动或过程表现没有总体差异。然而，在这19名患者中，6名患者的运动能力测量结果，以及5名患者的过程能力测量结果在两种环境下有显著差异。
结论
结果表明，如果我们想了解疑似痴呆症患者在特定环境中进行IADLs的表现，我们应该在该环境中对其进行测试。
