Abstract

These results suggest that when using the Modified RMI to assess patients in the early stages following stroke, similar results can be obtained by different raters, regardless of experience. However there needs to be a difference of more than 4.5 points (degree of measurement error at 95% confidence level) in the overall score to detect true changes in the patient's level of mobility.
