Examining the Association Between States of Consciousness and the Coma Recovery Scale–Revised: A Rasch Analysis

Date Presented 04/9/21

OTs use the Coma Recovery Scale–Revised (CRS–R) to evaluate and make treatment decisions for individuals with disorders of consciousness (DoC) after a brain injury. This session will describe psychometric properties of the assessment and examine the association with state of consciousness. State of consciousness influences how therapists think about the patient’s prognosis, plan of care, and rehabilitation outcomes.
