2.5.2. Functional Independence
Functional independence was evaluated by the physiotherapist during every treatment session using the mILAS and was documented in the electronic health record. In the intervention group, the mILAS was also documented in the app. The mILAS evaluates a patient’s ability to perform various activities of daily living, including transferring from a supine position to a seated position and vice versa, sitting to standing, walking, and climbing stairs. It rates the level of assistance and type of walking aid required for each task, with scores ranging from 0 to 6 points per item.
