Protocol - Recovery and Recurrence Questionnaire (RRQ) - Pediatrics

Description

The Recovery and Recurrence Questionnaire (RRQ) includes seven questions completed by a parent about their child. Questions 1A to 1D capture problems with strength, coordination, or sensation, problems with expression, problems with understanding, and problems with thoughts or behaviors. Questions 2 to 7 capture difficulties with day-to-day activities, recurrence of stroke, occurrence of headaches or seizures, other medical problems, medications, and treatments. Responses from questions 1A to 1D are summed to give a total score, with higher scores indicating greater functional impairment.
