Outcome measures
Primary outcome
Measuring points in part 1 are at entry in the study and three weeks later. In
Part 2 measuring points are at entry (baseline- T0) and after 3, 6 and 9 weeks.
In both parts of the study the following characteristics will be collected:
age, gender, brain lesion site, co-morbidities or complications. The primary
outcome is the *Movement Specific Reinvestment Scale*.
Additional test (amendment): Degree of which a participants performs worse
during the stressfull situation (compared to the trainings situation). This
will be operationalised by: numbers of falls/stumblings, number of times
touching an obstacle,
times of freezing (the times that the patient stops walking will be counted).
Secondary outcome
As additional measurements on functional outcome are used: the Rivermead
Mobility Index (part 1 and 2) and the Barthel Index (part2). To control for
confounding, in part 2 the Cognitive Log and the Hospital Anxiety and
Depression Scale are used.
Addiotional test (amendment):
Both the patients and independent rater will be asked to judge the quality of
the walking on a 10 point Likert scale.
Background summary
Movement disruption and reinvestment have been investigated in athletes and in
the healthy population. It has been shown that the *Reinvestment Scale* (RS)
could possibly predict whether someone will fail when performing movements
under (psychological) pressure.
The adapted version of the RS, the *Movement Specific Reinvestment
Scale* (MSRS) has been developed for the use in rehabilitation and has recently
been used in two explorative studies in patients with Parkinson disease and
Stroke. The results were promising but more research, especially concerning the
quality of this scale in the context of rehabilitation, is still indicated.
Study objective
The aim of this study is twofold. Firstly, to investigate the test-retest
reliability of the MSRS in stroke patients. And secondly, to study changes in
MSRS score overtime in stroke patients in order to examine: a) the predictive
value of the MSRS in stroke b) whether the score of the MSRS changes over time
and c) whether the score of the MSRS correlates with with other mobility
related factorsand the level of independence?
Amendment: Is the MSRS able to predict which participants will perform worse
under stressfull circumstances?
Study design
In the first part of the study a test retest design will be used. The second
part will be based on a longitudinal cohort study design.
Study burden and risks
As there are no invasive interventions, nor any untested experimental
measurements used, no significant additional risk to the assessment of therapy
of the participants is anticipated.
