Year 2009, Issue: 1, 63 - 72, 01.05.2009

Abstract

Giriş:değerlendirilmesinde kullanılan iki farklı gözlemsel yürümedeğerlendirme ölçeğini diparetik serebral paralizili (SP) çocuklardauygulamak ve bu iki skalanın motor performans ve fonksiyonel seviyeile olan ilişkilerini değerlendirmekti.Gereç-Yöntem: Çalışmaya yaş ortalaması 7.79±4.37 yıl olan KabaMotor Fonksiyon Sınıflandırma Sistemi (GMFCS)’ye göre seviye IIII’teki 52 diparetik SP’li çocuk dâhil edildi. Yürümenin gözlemseldeğerlendirmesi için Gilette Fonksiyonel Yürüyüş Skalası (FAQ),gözlemsel yürüyüş değerlendirmesi için Hekim Değerlendirme Skalası(PRS) kullanıldı. Her iki skalanın Kaba Motor Performans Ölçütü(GMPM) ve çocuklar için fonksiyonel bağımsızlık ölçütü (WeeFIM)kullanılarak belirlenen fonksiyonel bağımsızlık düzey ile ilişkileriincelendi.Sonuçlar: GMFCS’ye göre üç ayrı motor fonksiyon seviyesindekiolgularda PRS ve FAQ değerleri istatistiksel olarak farklı bulunmuştur(p<0.05). Hem PRS hemde FAQ için farkı yaratan seviye 1’deki olgularolmuştur. Yapılan korelasyon incelemeleri sonunda; PRS ile FAQarasında (r=0.337), PRS ile toplam GMPM (r=0.428), FAQ ile toplamGMPM (r=0.606) ve toplam WeeFIM (r=0.599) arasında anlamlı bir ilişkibulundu (p<0.05). PRS ile toplam WeeFIM arasında istatistiksel olarakanlamlı Tartışma: Spastik diparetik SP’li çocuklarda gözlemsel yürüyüşanalizlerinden PRS ve FAQ özür şiddeti ve motor performansa hassasolarak çocuğun ev içi ve ev dışı ambulasyonunu ve fonksiyonelaktivitelerini değerlendirmede klinisyenler tarafından kullanılabileceğinidüşünmekteyiz

ASSESSMENT OF GAIT WITH TWO DIFFERENT OBSERVATIONAL GAIT SCALES IN CHILDREN WITH SPASTIC DIPARETIC CEREBRAL PALSY

Year 2009, Issue: 1, 63 - 72, 01.05.2009

Abstract

Introduction: This study aimed to utilize two different observational gaitscales in the assessment of gait and to assess their relationshipbetween motor performance and functional levels in children withdiparatic Cerebral Palsy (CP).Material-Method: This study included 52 spastic diparatic children withCP. The mean age of the children was 7.79±4.37 years and childrenwere in Level I-III of Gross Motor Function Classification System(GMFCS). Gilette Gait Functional Assessment Questionnaire (FAQ)and Physician Rating Scale (PRS) were used to assess observationalgait. The relationship between both gait scales and Gross MotorPerformance Measure (GMPM) and functional independence measure(WeeFIM) were investigated.Results: There was significant difference in PRS and FAQ scoresbetween levels of GMFCS (p<0.05). The difference was due to childrenin Level I for both PRS and FAQ. Significant correlation was foundbetween PRS and FAQ (r=0.337); PRS and total GMPM score(r=0.428); FAQ and total GMPM score (r=0.606); FAQ and totalWeeFIM score (r=0.599) (p<0.05). Any correlation was found betweenPRS and total WeeFIM (p>0.05).Conclusion: Clinicians can use observational gait scales; PRS andFAQ, which are sensitive to motor performance and severity ofdisability, in order to assess ambulation in home and communitysettings and functional activities
