Abstract:
The use of "Repty" index for functional assessment of treatment results in 40 patients with paraplegia aged 13-65 (mean 37) is presented. The outcome has been compared with Barthel Index- the oldest scale assessing activities of daily living. High correlation of both scales sensitivity was found; in some functional parameters "Repty" index was more sensitive.
