The Barthel Index for Activities of Daily Living
Tracking # 20-1169838
Course overview
The Barthel Index is an ordinal scale that measures a person's ability to complete activities of daily living. Published in 1965 the original Index was created to measure disability in patients whose rehabilitation impairments affected the use of their limbs to complete activities of daily living. It has since undergone two modifications. All three versions are used today for both clinical practice and research purposes. The Barthel Index is a quick and functional assessment tool that any member of the multidisciplinary team can complete via direct observation reliable interview or even relying on the assessor's clinical experience. This course will introduce the original Barthel Index and two modified versions of the original Index. Physiopedia Plus courses are accessed through a monthly ($31) or yearly ($237) membership.
