遗传性共济失调包括非常广泛的遗传性神经退行性疾病，以进行性共济失调为突出症状。为了更容易、更实用地测量小脑性共济失调的严重程度，人们提出了一种新的量表：共济失调评定量表(SARA)。这项研究的目的是将Sara翻译成巴西葡萄牙语并验证其有效性。方法：将SARA翻译成巴西葡萄牙语，进行分析，再翻译成英语，并与原文进行比较。应用于30例患者。除SARA外，我们还在所有受试者中应用了国际合作共济失调评定量表(ICARS)。结果：SARA量表被翻译成巴西版，具有良好的内部一致性，但ICARS和SARA之间没有显著的相关性。结论：SARA被翻译并验证为巴西葡萄牙语，具有良好的信度和效度。
The hereditary ataxias comprise a very large spectrum of genetically determined neurodegenerative disorders with progressive ataxia as the prominent symptom. In order to measure the severity of cerebellar ataxia in an easier and more practical way, it was proposed a new scale: the Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA). The objective of this study was to translate and validate SARA into Brazilian Portuguese. Method: The SARA was translated into Brazilian Portuguese, analyzed, back translated to English, and compared to the original version. It was applied to 30 patients. In addition to SARA, we applied the International Cooperative Ataxia Rating Scale (ICARS) in all subjects. Results: SARA scale was translated into Brazilian version with adequate internal consistence, but a significant correlation between ICARS and SARA was not found. Conclusion: SARA was translated and validated into Brazilian Portuguese language, showing good reliability and validity.
