This website provides insight into the Action Research Arm Test, also known as the ARAT, which is an evaluative measure to assess specific changes in limb function in someone who has suffered a stroke. This assessment is quick to administer with sound reliability and validity. I think this is a great assessment to use with stroke patients to show change overtime and help support why skilled services are needed, and hopefully, how the patient has progressed with OT services.
