2020年9月18日 · Medical Research Council (MRC)-sumscore evaluates global muscle strength. Manual strength of six muscle groups (shoulder abduction, elbow flexion, wrist extension, hip flexion, knee extension, and ankle dorsiflexion) is evaluated on both sides using MRC scale. Summation of scores gives MRC-sumscore, ranging from 0 to 60.

Medical Research Council (MRC)-sumscore evaluates global muscle strength. Manual strength of six muscle groups (shoulder abduction, elbow flexion, wrist exten-sion, hip flexion, knee extension, and ankle dorsiflexion) is evaluated on both sides using MRC scale. Summation of scores gives MRC-sumscore, ranging from 0 to 60. This score was developed for detecting …

2021年4月22日 · An MRC sum-score below 48 has been arbitrarily used for ICUAW diagnosis [25] and a score below 36 indicates severe muscle weakness [19] (Fig. 1). A four-point ordinal scale has been recently introduced but remains to be validated on a large cohort of patients [26].

2013年10月10日 · This study aimed to determine inter-observer agreement and clinical predictive value of the Medical Research Council sum score (MRC-SS) test in critically ill patients.

2016年1月29日 · The primary outcomes were MLT measured by ultrasonography and muscle strength evaluated with the Medical Research Council (MRC) scale. The secondary functional outcomes were average mobility level, FIM score, Timed Up and Go Test and SF-12 …

2018年8月17日 · Background Tuberculous meningitis (TBM) is a devastating infection in tuberculosis endemic areas with limited access to intensive care. Functional outcomes of severe adult TBM patients admitted to the ICU in nonendemic areas are not known. Methods We conducted a retrospective multicenter cohort study (2004–2016) of consecutive TBM patients …

2024年12月18日 · Interestingly, limb muscles function as evaluated by the MRC scale was lower in the complete weaning group as compared to the partial weaning and non survivor’s patients. In addition, the change in MRC score between admission and discharge was also higher in the complete weaning group as compared to their counterparts.

2011年1月28日 · This condition is diagnosed on the basis of the average Medical Research Council (MRC) strength score combined for 12 specified muscle groups (the MRC sum score) being less than 48, indicating that average strength is limited to movement against gravity and partial resistance [6].

2010年4月28日 · Difference in the MRC scale for muscle strength between patients assigned to the EMS group as compared with patients assigned to the control group (mean ± 2 standard errors). P = 0.04. EMS, electrical muscle stimulation; MRC, Medical Research Council.

2015年12月1日 · The IMS is an 11-item categorical scale that rates the patient's highest level of mobility, where 0 = nothing and 10 = walking independently without a gait aid [17]. Although there is high inter-rater reliability for this measure in the ICU setting, there are no published data on other clinimetric properties (validity, responsiveness) [17].
