Abstract: Objective To apply World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS 2.0) as a tool to assess the functioning of the old patients after stroke. Methods From August, 2018 to February, 2019, 107 old inpatients with stroke were divided into four groups according to the course of disease: ≤ 6 months, 7-12 months, 13-18 months and 19-24 months. They were assessed with WHODAS 2.0 and modified Barthel Index (MBI) at admission and discharge. Results The scores of both MBI and total WHODAS 2.0 improved at discharge (t > 2.481, P < 0.001). WHODAS 2.0 total scores decreased with the course of disease (F = 3.444, P < 0.05), but no significant decrease was found in the domains of Getting Along, Life Activities and Participation (F < 2.410, P > 0.05). WHODAS 2.0 total scores negatively correlated with MBI score (r = -0.540, P < 0.001), except the scores of domains of Life Activities and Participation (r = 0.184, P > 0.05). Conclusion WHODAS 2.0 can be used as a tool to assess and follow up the function and disability of old stroke patients.
