The specific aim was to determine the inter\u2010 and intrarater reliability of a modified House Functional Classification (MHC) system to evaluate upper extremity function and a standardized instrument to document upper extremity range of motion (Upper Extremity Rating Scale [UERS]). Sixty\u2010five children with CP (43 males, 22 females, mean age 9y 2mo, SD 4y 1mo) with spasticity involving the upper extremity (quadriplegia <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>=22; hemiplegia <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>=36; diplegia <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>=7; Gross Motor Functional Classification System Levels I <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>=41, II <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>=6, III <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>=3, IV <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>=5, V <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>=10) were evaluated independently by occupational therapists and orthopedic surgeons using both instruments at several visits. Inter\u2010 and intrarater reliability were determined for both instruments by calculating measures of agreement (weighted kappa values and intraclass correlation coefficients [ICCs]). Interrater agreement (ICC=0.94) and intrarater agreement (ICC=0.96) on the MHC were good to excellent. Similarly, inter\u2010rater agreement (kappa 0.66\u20130.81) and intrarater agreement (kappa 0.64\u20130.88) on the UERS was either good or excellent. The MHC and the UERS provide standardized, reliable, reproducible, and efficient instruments that can be used by occupational therapists and orthopedic surgeons to evaluate the upper extremities of children with CP.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1469-8749.2008.03098.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,6,23]],"date-time":"2009-06-23T07:35:40Z","timestamp":1245742540000},"page":"910-917","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":63,"title":["Quantification of upper extremity function and range of motion in children with cerebral palsy"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"50","author":[{"given":"L Andrew","family":"Koman","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rafael M M","family":"Williams","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Peter J","family":"Evans","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rachel","family":"Richardson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michelle J","family":"Naughton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Leah","family":"Passmore","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Beth Paterson","family":"Smith","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2008,11,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2217\/14796708.1.6.755"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/J006v25n03_04"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_2","unstructured":"Towards a common language for functioning disability and health.
