ACE-R | BI | FIM | SBS |
|---|---|---|---|
Cognitive status of patients | Ability to perform basic daily activities independently. | Degree of assistance needed by the patient in performing daily life activities. | Postural balance while sitting. |
The analysis of 5 cognitive domains allows for a maximum score of 100 points. A higher score indicates better cognitive abilities of the patient. | The assessment of 10 items of varying weight allows for a maximum of 20 points, which is equivalent to complete independence. | The scale includes 18 activities divided into motor and cognitive categories. Each is scored from 1 to 7 points. The analysis of the results indicates the degree of patients’ dependency in performing tasks. Scoring 120–126 points indicates full independence. | In 11 situations, scored from 0 to 4, the patient is assessed for the ability to maintain balance. A higher score indicates better balance of the subject. |
