Research Article: Interrater reliability of the Fugl-Meyer Motor assessment in stroke patients: a quality management project within the ESTREL study

Abstract


Introduction: The Fugl-Meyer Motor Assessment (FMMA) is recommended for evaluating stroke motor recovery in clinical practice and research. However, its widespread use requires refined reliability data, particularly across different health professions. We therefore investigated the interrater reliability of the FMMA scored by a physical therapist and a physician using video recordings of stroke patients.
