Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the effectiveness of the 37-item and 12-item versions of the Fugl-Meyer motor scale in measuring motor function recovery in stroke patients, using a repeated-measurements design.
- It involved 301 patients who were assessed multiple times after their strokes, using various scales for comparison.
- Results showed that while both the 37-item and 12-item scales were effective at the group level, the 37-item scale was better at detecting individual patient improvements.
