Wood-Daughnee et al developed the Reintegration to Normal Living Index (RNLI) to evaluate the global function status of a patient during rehabilitation. The instrument can be used to evaluate the degree to which the patient has been able to return to a normal life. The authors are from McGill University and Montreal General Hospital.
The instrument consists of 11 statements:
Scoring is based on distance along a 10 cm visual analogue scale (VAS).
Response
Score
no reintegration
0
complete reintegration
10
total score =
= SUM(points for all 11 items)
adjusted score =
= (total score) / 110 * 100
Interpretation:
• minimum adjusted score: 0
• maximum adjusted score: 100
• The higher the score, the better the patient’s perceived reintegration.
