Summary

There is no significant neurological improvement in patients after complete spinal cord lesion. Therefore, based on the lesion level, we can determine a client’s functional ability potential quite accurately. In 1999, expected functional outcomes for individual levels of spinal lesion were described and published in forms of tables presenting the level of self-sufficiency and coping with activities of daily living. These tables were based on previously published studies, professional consensus and FIM (Functional Independence measure) results. This paper presents revised functional outcome tables evaluating additional activities and the ability to use specific equipment. Finally, we propose to use SCIM (Spinal Cord Independence Measure) instead of FIM data.
