I think I need more information to help you. What setting are we talking about?
How do the Docs intend to use the information? The BMAT is very, very low
level. The 10-meter walk test is a better indicator of the patient's ability to
function in the community. If this tool is going to be used for patients with
an oncology diagnosis, I would use the 10-meter walk test with RPE, as an
assessment of their ability to function in the community and degree of fatigue.

Hello,
I have been asked to develop a "quick screening" method for docs to use to
assess a patient's physical activity level. Does anyone have a survey or
functional test that they are using to assess this?
Thanks,
Jeannie
