Resumen	The Disability Rating Scale (DRS) is a brief, clinician-administered measure specifically designed to assess the severity of disability and functional recovery across the entire spectrum of traumatic brain injury (TBI)—from acute coma to community reintegration. Developed by Rappaport and colleagues in 1982, DRS has become a standard outcome measure in TBI research and clinical practice, uniquely spanning acute (comatose) phases through chronic community outcomes where other measures fail.	The Participation Measure for Post-Acute Care (PM-PAC) is a brief, clinician-administered tool designed to measure functional participation and independence in hospitalized rehabilitation patients across self-care, mobility, cognition, and social domains. Developed by Wang, Hart, Stratford, and Mioduski, PM-PAC is widely used in inpatient rehabilitation facilities (IRF) and skilled nursing facilities (SNF) to track progress, predict discharge outcomes, and inform therapy intensity planning.
