Patient reported outcome (PRO) measures [1, 2] are primarily used to objectively reflect a patients health or functional status at any given time and to detect changes in this status as a response to an intervention [3]. Longitudinal validity was determined by the association (Pearson's r) between function and pain change scores (Time 1-Time 3). Clinicians may assess the upper limbs after breast cancer.

PubMed In a study by Stratford et al[1], comparing Upper Extremity Functional Index (UEFI 20- item) and the Upper Extremity Functional Scale (UEFS), the discriminant cross-sectional validity of the UEFI was found to be 6.65 with p = .003 while the convergent cross-sectional validity coefficient between the UEFI and the UEFS was 0.82. The study limitations include the lack of longitudinal data regarding other psychometric properties including responsiveness or sensitivity to change and error scores as a representation of a minimal clinically important difference. 0000158137 00000 n Hidding, J.T. https://www.physio-pedia.com/index.php?title=Upper_Extremity_Functional_Index&oldid=259397, Any of your usual work, housework, or school activities, Your usual hobbies, recreational or sporting activities, Lifting a bag of groceries to waist level, Lifting a bag of groceries above your head, Pushing up on your hands (eg, from bathtub or chair), Laundering clothes (eg, washing, ironing, folding), Carrying a small suitcase with your affected limb.
