Fatigue in men and women who have returned to work after stroke - as assessed by the Fatigue Severity Scale and the Mental Fatigue Scale
CONCLUSION: Fatigue is common among persons who have returned to work after stroke, and interferes with daily life. The long-term consequences of fatigue should be addressed after stroke, especially in women. The FSS and the MFS can be used in combination, as they provide information on different aspects of fatigue.PMID:34383959 | DOI:10.2340/16501977-2863

Rasch analysis of the UK Functional Assessment Measure in patients with complex disability after stroke.
CONCLUSION: The UK FIM+FAM with domain super-items satisfies expectations of the unidimensional Rasch model without the need for re-scoring. A conversion table was produced to convert the total scale scores into interval-level data based on person estimates of the Rasch model. The clinical benefits of interval-transformed scores require further evaluation. PMID: 29487943 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
