Objective[edit | edit source]
- Assess the functional capacity of the upper extremity in Activities of Daily Living (ADL) using both qualitative and quantitative method [1]
- Was developed in 1988 by McCulloch to supplement the WMFT as it was unable to detect the improvements in ADL activities of people with stroke receiving constraint-induced movement therapy.[2] The AMAT focuses mainly on activity limitation rather than impairment. [3]
Intended Population[edit | edit source]
- Mostly Stroke patient[1][4]
- People with a neurological problem like vestibular dysfunction, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury [4]
Method of Use[edit | edit source]
The Arm Motor Ability Test(AMAT) has different versions and the components vary accordingly. Originally, AMAT consisted of 17 components. The AMAT version 13 has 13 components, the AMAT version 10 has 10 components, and the AMAT version 9 consists of 9 components.[2][5]The tasks in the tool are further divided into 1-3 subtasks or movements and the tasks may involve different contributions from the bilateral arm or distal and proximal part of the affected arm.[5]
