ABSTRACT
Objective To examine the relationships among measures of gait recovery and community integra-tion index in people with brain injury.Methods 142 brain injured patients were chosen in this study.Community Balance and Mobility Scale,Dynamic Gait Index,Ten-Meter Walk Test for gait speed,and the Community Integration Questionnaire (CIQ) was measured.Results Average walk speed was 0.31-5.30 (1.36 ±0.88)m/s;DGI score was 5-24 (18.6 ±5.44) points;CMBS score was 0 -96 (54.1 ±25.3) points;CIQ subscale 6 -29 (16.2 ± 5.1)points,CIQ family subscale was 0-10 (4.8 ±3.0)points;CIQ society subscale was 4-12(8.2 ±2.1)points;CIQ productivity subscale was 0-7(3.8 ±2.2).The correlation between age and Ten-Meter Walk Test was nega-tive significantly (r=-0.50,P<0.05).All 3 balance/gait measures correlated significantly with the CIQ Productiv-ity subscale (r=0.35-0.58,P<0.05).Conclusion The ability of people with brain injury to engage in work/school/volunteer activity may be reduced by impairments in balance and mobility.
