Abstract

Purpose

Detailed reports of the assessments used in rehabilitation wards are lacking. This study aimed to examine the common evaluations used in rehabilitation wards and discuss the necessary assessments for treatment plans and patient management.

Methods

We conducted a comprehensive literature search of PubMed, Web of Science, MEDLINE, and Ichushi Web for articles published between June 2013 and June 2023. The study was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines and registered with PROSPERO. Data extraction and blind selection were performed, and a consensus was reached among experts in case of conflicts.

Results

We identified 220 studies, 31 meeting the inclusion criteria post-screening. The Functional Independence Measure was the most used assessment (96.8%), followed by grip strength (32.3%) and the 10-m walk test (9.7%). Other assessments included the Stroke Impairment Assessment Set, Short Physical Performance Battery, and Timed Up and Go Test. Although fall-related incidents are frequent, significantly affecting patient outcomes in rehabilitation units, balance assessments were underutilized.

Conclusions

Although the FIM is an extensively used assessment in rehabilitation wards, balance assessments critical for fall prevention are significantly underused. Therefore, these assessment tools should be evaluated in future research and clinical practice.

Introduction

In the rehabilitation of older adults, prompt improvement in activities of daily living (ADLs) during recovery from illness or surgery is essential. ADLs include basic activities of daily living such as eating, bathing, dressing, and toileting; the ability to independently perform these activities can improve the quality of life (QOL) of older adults. ADLs are closely related to QOL1–5 and social participation6–9 and are fundamental in older adults leading safer and more fulfilling lives at home and in the society. In addition, this foundation helps maintain social connections, prevent isolation, and provide spiritual satisfaction.

Improving ADLs requires a treatment plan that includes optimized patient management based on assessments of the patient’s physical functions and activity levels. Adequate assessment in the early stages of rehabilitation is essential to prevent safety-related adverse events,10 which frequently occur in rehabilitation wards, and establish a foundation of independent living for older adults. After an appropriate patient assessment, an optimal treatment plan can be designed and implemented. Meanwhile, inadequate assessments and incorrect treatment plans may not only impede patient recovery but also increase the risk of safety-related adverse events in rehabilitation wards.

However, detailed reports of the assessments used in rehabilitation wards are lacking. Assessment methods used in rehabilitation wards comprise physical function assessments, psychological function assessments, and assessments of social factors. Physical function assessments include muscle testing, neurological testing, and balance assessment. Moreover, cognitive and psychosocial assessments are essential for successful rehabilitation. These assessment methods are critical to the success of a rehabilitation program; therefore, evaluating their effectiveness and deriving specific remedial measures are essential.

Therefore, the present study aimed to review the assessments commonly used in rehabilitation wards and discuss the assessments required for the development of treatment plans, including patient management. Through this review, we aimed to contribute to the optimization of assessments used in the rehabilitation of older adults.

Methods

Literature search and study selection

The methodology employed in this systematic review adhered to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines.11 This systematic review was registered in the PROSPERO International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (registration number: CRD42023393290). The PRISMA checklist for this report of the review is available in Extended Dataset: Appendix 1.12 This systematic review of the literature was conducted in July 2023. The data were collected from PubMed, Web of Science, MEDLINE, and Ichushi Web, a Japanese journal database; we reviewed articles published in the last 10 years (June 2013 to June 2023) to obtain the latest evidence. The inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) the study included patients admitted to a convalescent or rehabilitation ward; (2) the study included older adults aged 65 years or older; and (3) the paper was published in English or Japanese. Studies were excluded if they met the following criteria: (1) inclusion of a non-standard assessment; (2) wrong population such as genetic, rat, or community-dwelling older adults; (3) abstracts, letters, editorials, protocols, proceedings, expert opinions, reviews, and case reports; 4) studies of Acute, Chronic, Community-Based, and Post-Discharge Rehabilitation. Furthermore, this review focused on papers that assessed physical and daily functioning, rather than physiological, severity evaluation, nutritional, swallowing, or cognitive assessments.

The search was performed using the following keywords: (“Older patients” OR “elderly patients” OR “geriatric patients” OR “senior patients” OR “aged 65 years or over” OR “65 years and older”) AND (“Rehabilitation Hospital” OR “RH ward” OR “Rehabilitation ward” OR “Rehab ward” OR “RH unit” OR “Rehabilitation unit” OR “Rehab unit”) AND (“Activity” OR “activity level” OR “activity measures” OR “functional activity”) (Table 1).

All references from the initial search were exported to Rayyan software for data extraction. After the removal of duplicates, the first and second authors of the present study performed a blinded selection of literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The initial screening was based on the titles and abstracts of the identified articles. Subsequently, the same experts evaluated the full text of selected papers. In the case of conflicting opinions, a consensus was reached through discussion among the three experts.

Results

The initial comprehensive search of PubMed, Web of Science, MEDLINE, and Ichushi Web databases produced 220 articles. After the removal of duplicate articles, 206 articles were selected. A thorough screening of the titles and abstracts led to the exclusion of 169 articles. Afterward, the full texts of the remaining 37 articles underwent a meticulous review. Ultimately, after thorough analysis, 31 articles were deemed appropriate for data extraction and,13–43 thus, included in the review (Extended Dataset: appendix 2).12

The detailed results of the review are shown in Tables 2 and 3. The Functional Independence Measure (FIM) was the most frequently used outcome measure for inpatients in the rehabilitation ward (n = 30, 96.8%).13–42 The FIM is a widely used tool for evaluating ADLs.44 Other commonly used evaluations in rehabilitation wards include grip strength (n = 10, 32.3%),27,13,16,18,19,22,23,29,41,43 the 10-meter walk test (10MWT; n = 3, 9.7%),16,29,41 the Stroke Impairment Assessment Set (SIAS; n = 2, 6.5%),26,38 the Short Physical Performance Battery Test (SPPB; n = 2, 6.5%),29,43 the Brunnstrom stage test (BRS-t; n = 1, 3.2%),19 the Functional Ambulation Categories (FAC; n = 1, 3.2%),24 the 30-second chair stand test (CS-30; n = 1, 3.2%),16 the Katz Index of Independence in Activities of Daily Living (Katz Index of Independence in ADL, n = 1, 3.2%),43 the Lawton Instrumental Activities of Daily Living scale (Lawton IADL scale; n = 1, 3.2%),43 the Timed Up and Go Test (TUG; n = 1, 3.2%),43 and the Frail 10-second Chair Stand Test for Frail Elderly (Frail CS-10; n = 1, 3.2%).42

Extended Dataset: Appendix 312,81–117 presents commonly used evaluations for older adults in rehabilitation wards, along with information on their reliability and validity (construct validity and criterion-related validity). These evaluations include the FIM45 and Katz Index of Independent in ADL46 for ADL evaluation; the Lawton IADL Scale47 for IADL evaluation; the 10MWT,48 FAC,49 and TUG50 for the assessment of walking ability; grip strength, the CS-30,51 and the Frail CS-1052 for muscle strength evaluation; the SIAS53,54 for the assessment of the degree of paralysis; and the SPPB55 for the assessment of physical function.

Evaluation of ADLs and IADL

The FIM45 and Katz Index of Independent in ADL46 are foundational in assessing ADLs such as dressing, bathing, and eating. These tools are highly reliable and possess a strong construct validity, demonstrating their effectiveness in reflecting patients’ functional status. Similarly, the Lawton IADL Scale47 extends this assessment to more complex daily activities, including financial management and medication use, which are critical for independent living.

Evaluation of muscle strength

Grip strength is a targeted measure of muscle strength, which is a predictor of morbidity and mortality in older adults. In addition, the CS-3051 and Frail CS-1052 are simple but powerful predictors of overall health and functional decline; these tests are used in the evaluation of muscle strength.

Assessment of walking ability

The 10MWT48 measures walking speed over a short distance and is a quick indicator of mobility limitations. The FAC49 assesses the level of support required by a patient for walking, which is crucial for safety and independence. The TUG,50 combining the elements of balance, speed, and agility, is particularly valuable for predicting fall risk. These assessments help in developing individualized rehabilitation programs that improve mobility and reduce fall risk.

Assessment of paralysis and physical function

The SIAS53,54 and BRS-t56,57 provide a detailed measure of paralysis and are particularly useful in stroke rehabilitation. The SPPB55 is a comprehensive tool that assesses lower extremity function and is a predictive index of disability. It combines balance, gait ability, and strength evaluation.

Discussion

We conducted a systematic review of commonly used assessments in rehabilitation wards. The results showed that the FIM was the most frequently used assessment method, appearing in 30 (96.8%) of the 31 articles reviewed. Grip strength assessment was used in 10 articles (32.3%), and the 10MWT was mentioned in three articles (9.7%). These assessments are essential for developing an appropriate treatment plan for each patient.

Assessment plays an important role in rehabilitation treatment planning and in determining the effectiveness of interventions. Kirshner et al.58 categorized assessments into discriminative, predictive, and evaluative measures according to their specific use. Discriminative measures are used to determine the presence or absence of a disease, and predictive measures are used to predict treatment outcomes. Meanwhile, evaluative measures are used to assess an intervention’s effectiveness and for the adjustment of the treatment plan, as necessary. In rehabilitation, these outcome measures are used to identify specific problems, determine the effectiveness of interventions, assess risks, and determine a patient’s range of behavior. Thus, assessment in rehabilitation plays a multifaceted role and significantly contributes to patient recovery and QOL.

In rehabilitation wards, efforts focus on improving patients’ functions and abilities, thus extending the range of ADL, and establishing an appropriate range of activities for patients. Several studies have shown a positive association between physical activity levels and QOL. A systematic review found that higher physical activity levels were associated with better QOL across different populations, including older adults and those with clinical conditions.59,60 Meanwhile, an increased range of activities increases the risk of falls.61,62 Therefore, it is important to reduce the risk of falls, which are common in rehabilitation wards.10 Reported fall rates among hospitalized patients range from 1% to 17%.63–67 In particular, 36–73% of patients with stroke experience falls within 6 months of discharge,68–72 with 61% occurring in the first 2 months after discharge.73 Furthermore, falls are associated with the fear of falling, anxiety, and reduced ADLs; appropriate fall-related assessments are needed to reduce the risk of falls.74–77

However, our review revealed that balance assessment indices are rarely used in the evaluation of fall risks. Only two of the 31 articles (6.5%) used the SPPB, which includes balance assessment, and the TUG test was utilized in one article (3.2%). According to Ganz et al., a history of falls and abnormalities in gait and balance are significantly associated with the occurrence of falls. Conversely, visual impairment, administered drugs, reduced ADLs, and cognitive impairment are not good predictors of falls.78 Teranishi et al. reported a close association between static standing balance ability and falls, underscoring the importance of balance assessment for fall prevention.79 When the ability for ADLs reaches a plateau, training can improve balance ability.80 Therefore, balance assessments, in addition to ADL assessments, should be performed regularly and frequently; if otherwise, it will be challenging to prevent falls after a discharge from the hospital. Although preventing all fall events is difficult, the risk can be minimized via thorough assessment and intervention.

This study’s significant strength is that it provides the first comprehensive analysis of outcome measures widely used in rehabilitation wards. However, the study has several limitations. First, the literature reviewed was limited to English and Japanese, meaning essential studies in other languages may not have been included. Second, we only included studies on the outcome measures for patients in rehabilitation wards; therefore, data on the assessment methods used in other wards (e.g., acute or chronic) were not considered. Third, the present study lacks data to directly compare the effectiveness and efficacy of the assessment instruments. Therefore, future studies review a more diverse literature and examine the use of assessment tools in different healthcare settings.

This study systematically reviewed the status of assessment methods used in rehabilitation wards and confirmed that the FIM is the most widely used measure, particularly in rehabilitation settings. However, the use of critical assessment measures, such as balance assessments, was inadequate in the crucial aspect of fall prevention. Therefore, the active use of these assessment tools and verification of their effectiveness are required in future research and clinical practice. The results of the present study may contribute to further improving the quality of rehabilitation.
