Introduction:
The Barthel Index (BI) is a widely used assessment of physical functioning in Dutch clinical stroke rehabilitation. However, since the introduction of the Utrecht Scale for Evaluation of Rehabilitation (USER), the USER is used more often instead, both in medical specialistic rehabilitation (MSR) and in geriatric rehabilitation (GR). We compared responsiveness of the Barthel Index, the USER physicalfunctioning (USER-pf) and the USER-derived BI (d-BI) in a combined cohort of MSR and GR patients.
