    This study introduces a rehabilitation evaluation framework using a three-tier hierarchy of functional goals and five evaluative criteria. This matrix improves the validity of orthotics evaluation for future clinical studies.

    Area of Science:

    • Rehabilitation science
    • Orthotics and prosthetics
    • Biomedical engineering

    Background:

    • Current orthotics evaluation lacks a standardized framework.
    • Improving limb function through orthoses requires robust assessment methods.
    • The tenodesis splint serves as a model for functional rehabilitation orthoses.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a novel evaluation framework for rehabilitation orthoses.
    • To establish a hierarchical structure for functional rehabilitation goals.
    • To integrate evaluative criteria with functional goals for comprehensive assessment.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a three-tier hierarchy for functional rehabilitation goals.
    • Creation of a matrix combining goals with five categories of evaluative criteria.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Identification of conjoint criteria based on validity assumptions.

    • Main Results:

    • A structured matrix for evaluating orthoses like the tenodesis splint.
    • Demonstration of the separation and integration of goal levels and evaluative categories.
    • Indication of directions for future development and research in orthotics.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed framework enhances the validity of orthotics evaluation criteria.
    • This matrix provides context and relative importance for specific orthotic interventions.
    • It facilitates the design of more rigorous and valid clinical studies in orthotics.
