Brief Summary

The RCS is a tool that can assess the need for complex rehabilitation and objectively indicate that a patient may have difficulty functioning well at home or in the community if their medical needs are still high. Among rehabilitation patients, there are still patients with complex needs, even though they have maximized rehabilitation potential. Moreover, RCS can also be useful in highlighting cases of patients becoming seriously ill during the rehabilitation process due to an acute illness such as sepsis, which significantly limits treatment time. This information can be emphasized using RCS data when requesting extended or increased rehabilitation support.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Turkish validation and reliability of the Rehabilitation Complexity Scale (RCS-E)

  The validity of the scale was validated by analyzing the correlations between the rcs-e-tr score obtained at admission (both for each partial item and the total score) and other suitability indicators used in Turkey (FIM Motor and Barthel) using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient r (rho). Additionally, to check the ability of rcs-e-tr to capture case complexity, it will be correlated with other scores usually recorded in our rehabilitation services on admission, using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient r(rho). Files will be viewed simultaneously and independently in a blinded manner by three researchers to assess the reproducibility of the scale.

  1 week for test retest interrater and intrarater evaluation. 2 months for the study

Interventions

questionnaire OTHER

Turkish translation of the scale will be made by a native English speaker and the back translation will be made into English, and the consistency of the original and Turkish translation will be evaluated by a three-person expert committee. The psychometric properties of the scale will be investigated according to the methods used for the validity of the original scale. The validity of the scale was validated by analyzing the correlations between the rcs-e-tr score obtained at admission (both for each partial item and the total score) and other suitability indicators used in Turkey (FIM Motor and Barthel) using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient r (rho). will be evaluated. Additionally, to check the ability of rcs-e-tr to capture case complexity, it will be correlated with other scores usually recorded in our rehabilitation services on admission, using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient r(rho).
