Description
Traditional assessment of the adult hemiplegic patient focuses on determining the level of assistance required for the patient to complete given activities. This focus does not indicate what are the missing components of movement that are interfering with or preventing the patient from completing the given tasks independently. Naturally, what the clinician does not identify as a problem may not get addressed in the course of patient management.
