Evaluation of Impaired Mobility in Chronic Illness Constitution of a Cohort
Sponsor: University Hospital, Clermont-Ferrand
Summary
Chronic illness is a public health issue and mobility loss is frequent in this population. Among its' multiple physical and psychological consequences, increased mortality and cardiovascular morbidity seem the main concern. Therefore, the exploration of locomotor deficiencies, physical capacities and metabolism of patients with chronic illnesses constitutes a major challenge both for the treatment of causal pathologies, as well as for evaluating the impact of therapeutic interventions, the benefit of which will be an improvement in physical capacities and ultimately mobility. In view of the hypothesis of an increase in the prevalence of mobility disorders in this population, this approach is part of a logic of screening and improving the effectiveness of the care of these patients with a multidisciplinary evaluation of individual risks. The EVALMOB protocol was designed in order to try to determine a standard profile of "dysmobility" in patients with chronic illness

Interventions
Development of a screening algorithm designed to determine a "dysmobility" profile in patients with chronic illness.
Firstly, volunteers will be invited to complete online questionnaires on a secure platform. The mobility assessment will be carried out initially (t1) and up to a maximum of 4 times (t1 to t4) as part of a day hospitalization. Questionnaires will be diverse (SF36, KOOS, HOOS, BROCKER, MNA, TAMPA, etc.) in order to assess several aspects that compose mobility. Physical evaluations will include various validated tests (isokinetic strength measure, TUG, 6MWT, Berg Balance Scale, etc.)
