Rancho Los Amigos Cognitive Scale - (PTA - Irongirl)
Question | Answer |
---|---|
No Response | Completely unresponsive to any stimuli |
Generalized Response | Reacts inconsistently and non-purposefully to stimuli in a nonspecific manner. Responses are often the same regardless of stimulus. |
Localized Response | React specifically but inconsistently to stimuli. May follow simple commands such as closing the eyes or squeezing the hand in an inconsistent delayed manner. |
Confused-Agitated | Behavior is bizarre and non-purposeful relative to immediate environment. Does not discriminate among persons or objects. Verbalization incoherent and/or inappropriate. Lack short and long-term recall. |
Confused-Inappropriate | Follow simple commands, but with complex commands or lack of structure the responses are non-purposeful, random, or fragmented. Distractible and lack focus. Inappropriate use of objects can't learn new tasks. |
Confused-Appropriate | Show goal-directed behavior, dependent on external input or direction. Show carryover from relearned activities. Responses incorrect due to memory issues but appropriate to situation. |
Automatic-Appropriate | Robot-like, minimal to no confusion, shallow recall. With structure able to initiate social or recreational activities; judgment remains impaired. |
Purposeful-Appropriate | Able to recall and integrate past and recent events and is aware of and responsive to environment. Carryover for new learning and needs no supervision once activities are learned. |
