Trial Outcomes & Findings for Client Centred 'Tune-ups': do They Enhance Community Reintegration After Stroke? (NCT NCT00400712)

NCT ID: NCT00400712

Last Updated: 2016-05-05

Results Overview

The SIPSO is a 10-item measure developed specifically for stroke that includes a Physical Integration Subscale relating to activities and daily living and a Social Integration subscale relating to social adaptation. Each item is assessed on an ordinal scale from 0 (cannot perform the task or activity/completely dissatisfied) to 4 (no difficultly/completely satisfied) such that the minimum score is 0 and the maximum for each subscale is 20 and the maximum total score is 40 (sum of subscales). The total score reflects reintegration.

The SF-36 contains 36 questions pertaining to 8 health-related domains (physical and social function, emotional and physical limitation (role-emotional/role-physical), mental health, vitality, bodily pain, and general health). The derivation of the Physical component summary (PCS) score takes into account the physical health domains (physical function, role-physical and bodily pain) and scores self-reported physical health on a scale from 0 to 100, where 0 is the lowest rating of physical health and 100, the highest or best.
