Frenchay Activities Index

Last Updated

August 09, 2019

Purpose

The Frenchay Activities Index (FAI) is a measure of instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) for use with patients recovering from stroke. The FAI assesses a broad range of activities associated with everyday life that patient has participated in within the recent past, broken into 3 domains: domestic chores, leisure/work, and outdoor activities.

The items included move beyond the scope of ADL scales, which tend to focus on issues related to self care and mobility.
Can be separated into 3 domains:
1) Domestic chores
2) Leisure/work
3) Outdoor activities
The frequency with which each item or activity is undertaken over the past 3-6 months (depending on the nature of the activity) is assigned a score of 1 �C 4 where a score of 1 is indicative of the lowest level of activity.
The scale provides a summed score from 15 �C 60.
A modified 0-3 scoring system introduced by Wade et al. (1985) yields a score of 0 �C 45.

Frenchay Activities Index translations:

Spanish (p288):

Dutch; translated (Schuling, de Haan, Limburg & Groenier, 1993)

Chinese; translated and validated (Hsueh & Hsieh, 1997)

The FAI can be used as a mailed questionnaire. Carter, Mant, Mant, Wade, and Winner (1997) reported an correlation between mailed questionnaire FAI scores and face-to-face interview scores (r = 0.94).

Can also be used with patients with cognitive impairment, using a proxy respondent. The focus of the FAI is on frequency of activity rather than quality of activity. Proxy agreement was for the FAI (intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) = 0.85) (Segal & Schall, 1994). Holbrook and Skilbeck (1983) found that information obtained by relatives were interchangeable with information acquired from the patient. Segal and Schall (1994) reported proxy agreement for the three subscales as ranging from (ICC = 0.59 for Leisure/work) to (ICC = 0.77 for Domestic and Outdoors).

FAI and Barthel Index (BI) are complementary measures that both assess Activities of Daily Life (ADL)
Each measure assesses different aspects of ability, the BI assesses movement and motor power functioning, the FAI assessed progressively more difficult aspects of ADL
