Google ScholarSee all References Responses to the COPM guided participants to identify up to 5 functional goals that were used for the GAS. Five of the most important areas are selected and then rated by participants on 2 scales: perception of current performance and satisfaction with current performance. The rating scales are 10-point scales where scores closer to 10 indicate perceived better performance and increased satisfaction. At 3 and 6 months, the scores from the level of goals achieved were summed and converted to a T-score. A T-score of 50 indicates that goals are, on average, achieved.

These ratings were repeated at 3 and 6 months to determine change in the participants’ perceptions. Each child received 1 set of injections after baseline assessment and was reevaluated 2 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months later. The parent, caregiver, and child were invited to participate in these assessments; together they made the decision whether there was a primary or joint respondent.
