Additional validation study and French cross-cultural adaptation of the Pediatric Stroke Outcome Measure–Summary of Impressions (PSOM-SOI)

Conclusion: The IRR of the French PSOM-SOI gave variable results depending on the item and rater’s experience, but the extent of disagreements was minor for individual items and total score. Additional prospective validation studies using the French PSOM-Short Neurological Exam to score the PSOM-SOI are needed. A dichotomized total score (cutoff ≤ 0.5) could be used to define normal function versus poor outcome.
