| EN Abstract: |
| Objective: To study the validity of the Extended Barthel Index (EBI) to evaluate the activity of daily living activity (ADL) of stroke, and to provide a basis for its clinical application. Methods: Thirty stroke patients were evaluated by EBI, the Barthel index (BI), the modified Barthel index (MBI), and the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE). Spearman correlation analysis between EBI and BI, MBI or MMSE was done to test the validity of EBI. Results: The motor function part of EBI was highly correlated with BI and MBI in item and total scores. The cognitive function part of EBI was highly correlated with the total scores of MMSE, and the correlation coefficient of the total score of BI and MBI, MMSE was 0.915, 0.949, 0.879 respectively (P<0.01). Conclusion: EBI has good standard validity, which reflects the motor function and cognitive function of stroke to some extent, and can evaluate the ADL ability of stroke more comprehensively. |
