Assessment of primary rehabilitation needs in neurological rehabilitation: translation adaptation and face validity of the Danish version of Rehabilitation Complexity Scale-Extended

摘要

BackgroundAssessing primary rehabilitation needs in patients with acquired brain injury is a challenge due to case complexity and the heterogeneity of symptoms after brain injury. The Rehabilitation Complexity Scale-Extended (RCS-E) is an instrument used in assessment of rehabilitation complexity in patients with severe brain injury. The aim of the present study was to translate and test the face validity of the RCS-E as a referral tool for primary rehabilitation. Face validity was tested in a sample of patients with acquired brain injury.
