Objectives
Our aim was to test the validity and reliability of the Manchester Mobility Score (MMS) as a quick and simple tool for monitoring rehabilitation within critical care.
Methods
This prospective observational study was performed within a large 75 bed, UK based mixed dependency critical care unit. The study was divided into 2 stages: stage one was the inter-rater reliability testing of the MMS and stage 2 was to assess for correlation with another validated measure of function within critical care and explore any relationship with hospital length of stay post critical care discharge.
Results
Stage 1-MMS were collected for 111 patients over a 2 day period. All participating physiotherapists and nursing staff reported that the MMS took less than 1 minute to complete and was easy to use. The inter-rater reliability was excellent with all 3 assessors assigning the same MMS score for every patient (Kappa value= 1).
