Abstract

In addition to locomotion, mobility also includes any motor performance that serves other purposes and movements that are unplanned. This article presents the instruments mentioned in the S1 guideline “Geriatric assessment level 2, living guideline”, as well as additional ones that are less known. The classification is into three categories: instruments that focus on the upper extremities, instruments without performance, which mainly focus on the functions and capabilities of the lower extremities, and those that do this using performance tests.
