![]() ![]() The FAB-CC is a novel functional outcome measure that is reliable for use with critically ill burn patients. The Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC) for the FAB-CC as a complete tool revealed excellent agreement (ICC 0.998 P0.983 P<0.001) with narrow 95% confidence intervals. This research aimed to investigate the interrater reliability of the FAB-CC.Ī quantitative reliability study assessed the ability of the FAB-CC to obtain accurate data when utilised by three separate raters (m=3) scoring the same clinical episodes (n=24). We therefore developed and tested the inter-rater reliability of a burn specific novel functional outcome measure The Functional Assessment for Burns-Critical Care (FAB-CC). Despite a surge in validated ICU functional outcome measures following the publication of Clinical Guideline 83 'Rehabilitation After Critical Illness' by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (2009), there are none composed specifically for use in the Burns ICU. ![]() ![]() Intensive Care Unit Acquired Weakness challenges the clinical care of critically ill patients. ![]()
