Data collections and SOMs Flashcards
Why do we collect data
Baseline, patient motivation and to evaluate effectiveness of interventions
What does having a baseline help with
Planning interventions and guiding them in the right directions, accesses patients level of safety, need for AD and helps if needing placement
What are standardized outcome measures
Provide a common language to assess the effectiveness of interventions using comparative outcomes.
True or false: SOM’s occur all over the ICF model
True!
Impairment: BERG
Activity limitations: ABC
Participation restrictions: ?
What are the 4 ways you can evaluate the quality of SOM
Reliability, validity, specificity and sensitivity
What is reliability
reproducibility/consistency of measurements
What are the types of reliability and what do they mean
Interrater - between 2 measurers
Intrarater - between the same measurer
What does validity mean
Is the test measuring what it intends to measure, is it accurate
What does sensitivity mean
How well a test identifies a person WITH a condition as POSITIVE
True positives > False negatives
What does specificity mean
How well a test identifies a person WITHOUT a condition as NEGATIVE
True negatives > False positives
What is MDC
MDC - minimal detectible change
Smallest detectible change that overcomes the possible measurement error of the instrument
What is MCID
MCID - Minimal clinical important difference
Smallest difference that is important rather than a trivial difference of the condition.
What are the 4 types of SOM and what do they each meanq
Multidimensional - takes into account a combination of factors
Unidimensional - Only takes into account one factor
Self - report : Patient assesses own capabilities and perception (interview)
Performance based - Observing patient doing a variety of tasks to indicate what they can do under specific circumstances
