目的探讨社区痴呆患者日常生活活动能力（ADL）的表现特征及其与痴呆严重程度的关系。材料与方法：采用Barthel指数（BI）、Lawton和Brody工具性日常生活活动量表（IADL）和运动与过程技能评定量表（AMPS）对86名受试者进行ADL评定。痴呆严重程度通过临床痴呆评定（CDR）来测量。结果-受试者能够进行最基本的ADL（BI平均值= 16.4）和一些IADL（Lawton和Brody的IADL平均值= 4.3）。AMPS加工能力、Lawton和Brody的IADL与CDR呈显著相关（P < 0.01）。结论：轻度痴呆患者能够进行大部分基本ADL和部分IADL。AMPS过程能力测量和Lawton和Brody的IADL可以提供有用的信息，他们在社区中独立生活的能力。
Objective - To explore the activities of daily living ADL performance profile of community-living people with dementia and to investigate its relationship with dementia severity. Materials & Methods - ADL performance of 86 subjects were evaluated using Barthel Index (BI), Lawton and Brody's Instrumental Activities Daily Living (IADL) and Assessment of Motor and Process Skills (AMPS). Dementia severity was measured by Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR). Results - Subjects were able to perform most basic ADL (BI mean = 16.4) and some IADL (Lawton and Brody's IADL mean = 4.3). The AMPS process ability measure and the Lawton and Brody's IADL were significantly correlated with CDR (P < 0.01). Conclusions - Subjects with mild dementia were able to perform mostly all basic ADL and some IADL. The AMPS process ability measure and the Lawton and Brody's IADL could provide useful information on their ability to live independently in the community.
