Clinicians can utilize the LEFS to measure initial function, track progress, set goals, and evaluate treatment effectiveness for patients with lower extremity disorders. With a maximum score of 80, lower scores indicate greater disability. The document includes scoring instructions, interpretation guidelines, and information on reliability metrics. By addressing activities like walking, lifting, and recreational pursuits, the LEFS offers valuable insights for tailored patient care and rehabilitation strategies.
