Background and Objectives: Measuring changes in patient performance is crucial in studies assessing the effects of treatments in rehabilitation. Accurate measurement requires precise instruments. The COSMIN checklist is a valuable tool for selecting the best measurement options. This study aims to introduce the COSMIN checklist and its application in rehabilitation sciences. This review study examines the 2015 version of the COSMIN index guide, demonstrating its use in rehabilitation research.
Results: The COSMIN checklist provides a standardized method for evaluating and selecting measurement tools in studies. It also assesses the quality of studies included in systematic reviews. The checklist includes tables that are completed with information from relevant studies, facilitating final decisions on the quality of a study or tool.
Conclusion: Given the importance of measurement in rehabilitation sciences and the standardization provided by the COSMIN checklist, it is a suitable tool for evaluating the quality of measurement tools used in rehabilitation studies.
