In recent years the Functional Independence Measure has emerged as a standard assessment instrument for use in rehabilitation and therapy programmes for disabled persons, including those with spinal cord injury (SCI). This measure was devised to be rated by a clinician familiar with the patient. We studied 40 spinal cord injury patients who were rated on the FIM by a clinician within the 6 weeks prior to discharge, and who then rated themselves on the FIM at one month post discharge. There was a strong correlation between the differently rated scores. This suggests that the FIM can be given to patients as a self-report questionnaire, thus reducing time of assessment and increasing assessment potential.
近年来，功能独立性测量已成为用于残疾人康复和治疗项目（包括脊髓损伤患者）的标准评估工具。该测量方法设计为由熟悉患者情况的临床医生进行评分。我们研究了40名脊髓损伤患者，他们在出院前6周内由临床医生根据功能独立性测量进行评分，然后在出院后1个月自行根据功能独立性测量进行评分。不同评分的分数之间存在很强的相关性。这表明功能独立性测量可以作为自我报告问卷发给患者，从而减少评估时间并提高评估潜力。
