The Barthel index (BI) is a regularly used index by doctors, nurses, and rehab therapists to assess patients. It is primarily used to assess the severity of a stroke and cognitive functioning (18). The composite BI is a 100-point rating, with 100 indicating entire independence, 60–99 indicating modest dependency, 40–59 indicating moderate dependence, 20–39 indicating severe dependence, and 0–19 indicating total dependence.
