Appendix.III

A. Mental Retardation

Definition

1. Mental retardation is a condition of arrested or incomplete development of the mind, which is especially characterised by impairment of skills manifested during the development period which contribute to the overall level of intelligence, i.e., cognitive, language, motor and social abilities.

2. Categories of Mental Retardation

2.1 Mild Mental Retardation.—The range of 50 to 69 (standardised IQ test) is indicative of mild retardation. Understanding and use of language tend to be delayed to a varying degree and executive speech problems that interfere with the development of independence may persist into adult life.

2.2 Moderate Mental Retardation.—The IQ is in the range of 35 to 49. Discrepant profiles of abilities are common in this group with some individuals achieving higher levels in visuo-spatial skills than in tasks dependent on language while others are markedly clumsy by enjoy social interaction and simple conversation. The level of development of language in variable some of those affected can take part in simple conversations while others have only enough language to communicate their basic needs.

2.3 Severe Mental Retardation.—The IQ is usually in the range of 20 to 34. In this category, most of the people suffer from a marked degree of motor impairment or other associated deficits indicating the presence of clinically significant damage to or mal-development of the central nervous system.

2.4 Profound Mental Retardation.—The IQ in this category estimated to be under 20. The ability to understand or comply with requests or instructions are severally limited. Most of such individuals are immobile or severally restricted in mobility, incontinent and capable at most of only very rudimentary forms of non-verbal communication. They posses little or no ability to care for their own basic needs and require constant help and supervision.

3. Process of Certificates

3.1 A disability certificate shall be issued by a Medical Board consisting of three members duly constituted by the Central/State Government. At least, one shall be a Specialist in the area of mental retardation, namely, Psychiatrist, Paediatrician and clinical Psychologist.

On representation by the applicant, the Medical Board may review its decision having regard to all the facts and circumstances of the case and pass such order in the matter as it thinks fit.

Annexure A

Locomotor Disability Revised Guidelines For Evaluation of
the Permanent Physical Impairment

1.1 Guidelines for Evaluation of Permanent Physical Impairment of Upper Limb

1. The estimation of permanent impairment depends upon the measurement of functional impairment and is not expression of a personal opinion.

2. The estimation and measurement should be made when the clinical condition has reached the stage of maximum improvement from the medical treatment. Normally the time period is to be decided by the medical doctor who is evaluating the case for issuing the PPI Certificate as per standard format of the certificate.

3. The upper limb is divided into two component parts; the arm component and the hand component.

4. Measurement of the loss of function of arm component consists of measuring the loss of motion, muscle strength and co-ordinated activities.

5. Measurement of loss of function of hand component consists of determining the prehension, sensation and strength. For estimation of prehension opposition, lateral pinch cylindrical grasp, spherical grasp and hook grasp have to be assessed as shown in Hand Component of Form A Assessment Proforma for upper extremity.

6. The impairment of the entire extremity depends on the combination of the functional impairments of both components.

ARM Component

1.2 Total value of arm component is 90%

1.2-1 Principles of evaluation of range of motion (ROM) of joints -

1. The value of maximum ROM in the arm component is 90%

2. Each of the three joints of the arm is weighed equally (30%)

Example - The intra articular fractures of the bones of right shoulder joint may affect range of motion even after healing. The loss of ROM should be calculated in each are of motion as envisaged in the Assessment Form A (Assessment Proforma for Upper Extremity).

Are of ROM	Normal value	Active ROM	Loss of ROM
Shoulder Flexion	0-220	110	50%
Rotation	0-180	90	50%
Abduction-Adduction	0-180	90	50%

Hence the mean loss of ROM of shoulder will be 50 + 50 + 50/3 = 150/3 = 50%

Shoulder movements constitute 30% of the motion of the arm component, therefore the loss of motion for arm component will be 50 x 0.30 = 15%. If more than one joint of the arm is involved the loss of percentage in each joint is calculated separately as above and then added together.

1.2-2 Principles of evaluation of strength of muscles -

1. Strength of muscles can be tested by manual method and graded from 0-5 as advocated by Medical Research Council of Great Britain depending upon the strength of the muscles.

2. Loss of muscle power can be given percentages as follows :

Manual muscle	Loss of strength in
Strength grading	percentage
0	100%
1	80%
2	60%
3	40%
4	20%
5	0%

3. The mean percentage of loss of muscle strength around a joint is multiplied by 0.30.

4. If loss of muscle strength involves more than one joint the mean loss of percentage in each joint is calculated separately and then added together as has been described for loss of motion.

1.2-3 Principles of evaluation of coordinated activities—

1. The total value of coordinated activities is 90%

2. Ten different coordinated activities should be tested as given in Form A. (Appendix. I of Annexure-A)

3. Each activity has a value of 9%

1.2-4 Combining values for the Arm Component - The total value of loss of function of arm component is obtained by combining the value of loss of ROM, muscle strength and coordinated activities, using the combing formula.

a+b (90-a)

where a = higher value

b = lower value

Example - Let us assume that an individual with an intra Particular fracture of bones of shoulder joint in addition to 16.5% loss of motion in arm has 8.3% loss of strength of muscles and 5% loss of coordination. These values should be combined as follows :

Loss of ROM - 16.5%		16.5 + 8.3 (90-16.5)
		90
Loss of strength of muscles - 8.3%		= 23.33%
To add
Loss of coordination - 5%		23.3 + 5(90-23.3) = 27.0%
		90

So the total value of loss of function in Arm component will be 27.0%

1.3 Hand Component :

1. Total value of hand component is 90%

2. The functional impairment of hand is expressed as loss of prehension, loss of sensation and loss of strength.

1.3-1 Principles of evaluation of prehension

1. Total value of prehension is 30%

It includes.

(a)opposition - 8%

Tested against	- Index finger	- 2%
	- Middle finger	- 2%
	- Ring	- 2%
	- Little finger	- 2%

(b) lateral pinch - 5% - Tested by asking the patient to hold a key between the thumb and lateral side of index finger.

(i)	Large object of 4 inches size	3%
(ii)	Small object of 1 inch size	3%

(d) Spherical grasp - 6% Tested for

(i)	Large object of 4 inches size	- 3%
(ii)	Small object of 1 inch size	- 3%

(e) Hook grasp - 5% - Tested by asking the patient to lift a bag

1.3-2 Principles of Evaluation of sensation

1. Total value of sensation in hand is 30%

2. It should be assessed according to the distribution given below :

(i) Complete loss of sensation

Thumb ray 9%

Index finger 6%

Middle finger 5%

Ring finger 5%

Little finger 5%

(ii) Partial loss of sensation - Assessment should be made according to percentage of loss of sensation in thumb/finger(s)

1.3-3 Principles of Evaluation of strength

1. Total value of strength is 30%

2. It includes:

(i) Grip strength 20%

(ii) Pinch strength 10%

Strength of hand should be tested with hand dynamo-meter or by clinical method (grip method).

Additional weightage - A total of 10% additional weightage can be given to following accompanying factors if they are continuous and persistent despite treatment.

1. Pain

2. Infection

3. Deformity

4. Mal-alignment

5. Contractures

6. Cosmetic disfiguration

7. Dominant extremity -4%

8. Shortening of upper limb

First 1" - No weightage

For each 1" beyond first 1" - 2%

The extra points should not exceed 10% of the total Arm Component and total PPI should not exceed 100% in any case.

1.3-4 Combining values of hand component - The final value of loss of function of hand component is obtained by summing up values of loss of prehension, sensation and strength.

1.3-5 Combining values for the Extremity - Values of impairment of arm component and impairment of hand component should be added by using combining formula :

a+b	(90-a)	a = higher value
a+b	90	b = lower value
Example :
Impairment of Arm - 27%			64 + 27 (90-64)
			90
Impairment of hand - 64%			= 71.8%

The total value can also be obtained by using the Ready Reckoner table for combining formula given at Appendix II of Annexure A.

Guidelines for Evaluation of permanent physical Impairment in Lower Limb

2. The measurement of loss of function in lower extremity is divided into two components: Mobility and standing components

2.1 Mobility Component

1. Total value of mobility component is 90%

2. It includes range of movement (ROM) and muscle strength

2.1-1 Principles of Evaluation of Range of Movement -

1. The value of maximum range of movement in mobility component is 90%

2. Each of three joints i.e., hip, knee and foot-ankle component is weighed equally - 30%.

Example - A fracture of right hip joint bones may affect range of motion of the hip joint. Loss of ROM of the affected hip in different are should be assessed as given in Form B (Assessment Proforma for lower extremity). (Appendix. I of Annexure A)

Affected Joint - Rt. Hip:

Are of Movement	Normal ROM	Active ROM	Loss in percentage
Flexion-Extension	0-140	70	50%
Abduction-Adduction	0-90	60	33%
Rotations	0-90	30	66%
Mean loss of ROM of Rt. Hip	= 50 + 33 + 66 3	= 50%

Since the hip constitute 30% of the total mobility component of the lower limb, the loss of motion in relation to the lower limb will be 50 × 0.30 = 15%

If more than one joint of the limb is involved the mean loss of ROM in percentage should be calculated in relation to individual joint separately and then added together as follows to calculate the loss of mobility component in relation to that particular limb.

For example :

Mean loss of ROM of Rt. Hip 50%

Mean loss of ROM Rt. Knee 40%

Loss of mobility component of Rt. Lower Limb will be (50 × 0.30) + (40 × 0.30) = 27%

2.1-2 Principle of Evaluation of Muscle Strength -

1. The value for maximum muscle strength in the limb is 90%

2. Strength of muscles can be tested by Manual Method and graded 0-5 as advocated by MRC of Great Britain depending upon the residual strength in the muscle group.

3. Manual Muscle grading can be given percentage like below:

Power Grade of MS	Loss of strength in percentage
0	100%
1	80%
2	60%
3	40%
4	20%
5	0%

4. Mean percentage of muscle strength loss around a joint is multiplied by 0.30 to calculate loss in relation to limb

5. If there has been a loss muscle strength involving more than one joint the values are added as has been described for loss of ROM

2.1-3 Combining values for mobility component—

1. The values of loss ROM and loss of muscle strength should be combined with the help of combining formula :

a+b(90-a)

(a = higher value, b = lower value)

Example : Let us assume that the individual with a fracture of right hip bones has in addition to 16% loss of motion, 8% loss of muscle strength also.

Combined values

Motion - 16%	16+8(90-16)
	90
Strength - 8%	=22.6%

2.2 Stability component

1. Total value of the stability component is 90%

2. It should be tested by clinical method as given in From B (Assessment Proforma for lower extremity). There are nine activities which need to be tested and each activity has a value of ten per cent (10%). The percentage valued in relation to each activity depends upon the percentage of loss stability in relation to each activity.

Extra Points

2.3 Extra points have been given for pain, deformities, contractures, loss of sensations and shortening Maximum points to be added are 10% (excluding shortening). Details are as following :

(i)	Deformity	In functional position		3%
		In non-functional position	6%
(ii)	Pain	Sever (grossly interfering with function)	9%
		Moderate (moderately interfering with function)		6%
		Mild (Midly interfering with function)	3%
(iii)	Loss of sensation	Complete	9%
		Partial Loss	6%
(iv)	Shortening	First 1/2"	Nil
		Every 1/2" beyond first 1/2"	4%
(v)	Complications	Superficial complications Deep complications	3%

Guidelines for Evaluation of Permanent Physical Impairment of Trunk (Spine)

3. Basic guidelines :

1. As permanent physical impairment caused by spinal deformity tends to change over the years, the certificate issued in relation to spine should be reviewed as per the standard format of the certificate given at Annexure-B of Appendix. III.

2. Permanent physical impairment should be awarded in relation to spine and not in relation to whole body.

3. Permanent physical impairment due to neurological deficit in addition to spinal impairment should be added by combining formula.

The local effects of the lesions of the spine can be conventionally divided into traumatic and non-traumatic. The percentage of PPI in relation to each situation should be valued as follows :

3.1 Traumatic Lesions

3.1-1	Cervical spine injuries		Percentage of PPI in relation to Spine
(i)	25% or more compression of one or two adjacent vertebral bodies with No involvement of posterior elements, No nerve root involvement, moderate Neck rigidity and persistent Soreness.		20%

3.2 Non traumatic lesions

3.2-1 Scoliosis - Basic guidelines - following modification is suggested.

- The largest structural curve should be accounted for while calculating the PPI and not the compensatory curve or both structural curves.

3.2-2 Measurement of Spine Deformity - Cobb’s method for measurement of angle of curve in the radiograph taken in standing position should be used. The curves have been divided into following groups depending upon the angle of major structural scoliotic deformity.

Group	Cobb’s Angle	PPI in relation to Spine
I.	0-20	Nil
II.	21-50	10%
III.	51-100	20%
IV.	101 & above	30%

3.2-3 Torso Imbalance - In addition to the above PPI should also be evaluated in relation the torso imbalance. The torso imbalance should be measured by dropping a plumb line from C7 spine and measuring the distance of plumb line from gluteal crease.

	Deviation of Plumb line	PPI
	Upto 1.5 CM	4%
	1.6-3.0 CM	8%
	3.1-5.0 CM	16%
	5.1 and above	32%

	Upto 15	4%
	More than 15	10%

3.2-5 Cardiopulmonary Test - In cases with scoliosis of severe type cardiopulmonary function tests and percentage deviation from normal should be assessed by one of the following method whichever seems more reliable clinically at the time of assessment. The value thus obtained may be added by combining formula.

	- Every 1/2" beyond first 1/2"	4%

(d) Neurological deficit - Neurological deficit should be calculated as per established method of evaluation of PPI in such cases. Value thus obtained should be added telescopically using combining formula.

Kyphosis

3.3 Evaluation should be done on the similar guidelines as use for scoliosis with the following modifications :

3.3-1	Spinal Deformity	PPI
	Less than 20	Nil
	21-40	10%
	41-60	20%
	Above 60	30%

10 to 15 cm in front of ankle 16%

More than 15 cm in front of ankle 32%

(Add directly)

3.4-1 Miscellaneous conditions - Those conditions of the spine which cause stiffness and pain etc. are rated as follows :

C	Same as B with moderate radiological changes	-25%
D	Same as B with severe radiological changes involving any one of the regions of spine	-30%
E	Same as D involving whole spine	-40%

4. Guidelines for Evaluation of PPI in cases of Short Stature/Dwarftsm

1. Recumbent length or longitudinal height below 3rd percentile or less than 2 Standard Deviation from the mean is considered to have short stature

2. The evaluation of a Short Statured person should be considered only when it is of disproportionate variety and is accompanied by an underlying pathological conditions, e.g., Achondroplasia, Chandrodysplasia Punctata, spondyloepiphysical dysplasia, mucopoly and acchrydosis, etc.

3. The ICMR norms as enclosed at Appendix III of Annexure. A should be used as a guidelines for the height.

4. Every 1" vertical height reduction should be valued as 4% permanent physical impairment.

5. Associated skeletal deformities should be evaluated separately and total percentage of both should be added by combining formula.

5. Guidelines for Evaluation of Permanent Physical Impairment in Amputees

Basic Guidelines :

1. In cases of multiple amputees if the total sum of permanent physical impairment is above 100%, it should be taken as 100% only.

2. If the stump is unfit for fitting the prosthesis additional weightage of 5% should be added to the value.

3. In case of amputation in more than one limb percentage of each limb is added by combining formula and another 10% will be added but when only toes or fingers are involved only 5% will be added.

4. Any complication in form of stiffness of proximal joint, neuroma, infection, etc., should be given upto a total of 10% additional weightage.

5. Dominant upper extremity should be given 4% additional weightage.

6. Guidelines for Evaluation of Permanent Physical Impairment of Congenital deficiencies of the limbs :

6.1 Transverse Deficiencies

1. Functionally congenital transverse limb deficiencies are comparable to acquired amputations and can be called synonymously as congenital amputation, however, in some cases revision of amputation is required to fit in a prosthesis.

2. The transverse limb deficiencies therefore should be assessed on basis of the guidelines applicable to the evaluation of PPI in cases of amputees as given in the preceding chapter.

For example :		PPI
-	Transverse deficiency Rt. Arm complete	90%
	(shoulder disarticulation)
-	Transverse deficiency at thigh complete	90%
	(hip disarticulation)
-	Transverse deficiency Proximal Upper arm	85%
	(Above elbow Amp)
-	Transverse deficiency at lower thigh	80%
	(Above knee Amp. Lower 1/3)
-	Transverse deficiency forearm complete	75%
	(elbow disarticulation)
-	Transverse deficiency lower forearm	65%
	(Below Elbow Amp.)
-	Transverse deficiency carpal complete	60%
	(wrist disarticulation)
-	Transverse deficiency Metacarpal complete	55%
	(Disarticulation through carpal bones)

6.2 Longitudinal Deficiencies

6.2-1 Basic Guidelines—

1. In cases of longitudinal deficiencies of limbs due consideration should be given to functional impairment.

2. In upper limb, loss of ROM loss muscular strength and hand functions like prehension, etc. should be tested while assessing the case for PPI.

3. In lower limb clinical method of assessing the stability component and shortening of lower limb should be given due weightage.

4. Apart from functional assessment the lost joint/part of body should also be valued as per distribution given in chapter Guidelines for Evaluation of PPI in upper extremity and lower extremity. The values so obtained should be added with the help of combining formula.

Example:

Congenital Absence of humorous where forearm bones directly articulate with scapula.

There will be miled reduction in ROM and strength of muscles in the existing joints apart from loss of body part.

Loss of shoulder joint can be given - 30%

Loss of ROM of Elbow/Shoulder & Wrist

All the components should be added together by the combining formula of	a + b (90-a)
	90

6.2-2 In cases of loss of single bone in forearm the evaluation should be based on the principles of evaluation of Arm component which include Evaluation of ROM, Muscle strength and coordinated activities. The values so obtained should be added together with the help of combining formula.

6.2-3 In cases of loss of single bond in leg the evaluation should be based on the principles of evaluation of mobility component and stability components of the lower extremity. The values obtained should be added together with the help of combining formula.

7. Guidelines for Evaluation of Physical Impairments in Neurological conditions

1.1 Basic Guidelines :

1. Assessment in neurological conditions is not the assessment of disease but the assessment of its effects, i.e., clinical manifestations.

2. These guidelines should only be used for central and upper motor neurone lesions.

3. Proformas (form A & B) will be utilized for assessment of lower motor neurone lesions, muscular disorders and other locomotor conditions.

4. Normally any neurological assessment for the purpose of certification has to be done six months after the onset of disease however exact time period is to be decided by the Medical Doctor who is evaluating the case and has to recommend the review of certificate as given in the standard format of certificate.

5. Total percentage of physical impairment in any neurological condition should not exceed 100%

6. In mixed cases the highest score will be taken into consideration. The lower’s score will be added telescopically to it by

the help of combining formula	a+b (90-a)
	90

7. Additional rating of 4% will be given for dominant upper extremity

8. Additional weightage up to 10 per cent can be given for loss of sensation in each extremity but the total physical impairment should not exceed 100%.

8. Guidelines for Evaluation of Physical Impairment due to Cardiopulmonary Diseases

8.1 Basic Guidelines :

1. Modified New York Heart Association subjective classification should be utilised to assess the functional disability.

2. The assessing physician should be alert to the fact that patients who come for disability claims are likely to ex-aggregate their symptoms. In case of any doubt patients should be referred for detailed physiological evaluation.

3. Disability evaluation of cardiopulmonary patients should be done after full medical, surgical and rehabilitative treatment available, because most of these diseases are potentially treatable.

4. Assessment of cardiopulmonary impairment should also be done in diseases which might have associated cardiopulmonary problems, e.g., amputees, myopathies, etc.

5. For respiratory assessment, routine respiratory functions test should be done, however, in cases of interstitial lung diseases, diffusion studies may be done.

6. In cases of angina pectoris (chest pain) base line studies in resting ECG should be done. When there is persistence of symptoms, exercise or stress test should be done.

8.2 The proposed classification with loss of function is as follows :

Group 0 : A patient with cardiopulmonary disease who is asymptomatic (i.e., has no symptoms of breathlessness, palpitation, fatigue or chest pain).

Group 1 : A patient with cardiopulmonary disease who becomes symptomatic during his ordinary physical activity but has mild restriction (25%) of his physical activities.

Group 2 : A patient with cardiopulmonary disease who becomes symptomatic during his ordinary physical activity and has 25-50% restriction of his ordinary physical activities.

Group 3 : A patient with cardiopulmonary disease who becomes symptomatic during less than ordinary physical activity so that his ordinary physical activities are 50-75% restricted.

Group 4 : A patient with cardiopulmonary disease who is symptomatic even at rest or on mildest exertion so that his ordinary physical activities are severely or completely restricted (75-100%).

Group 5 : A patient with cardiopulmonary disease who gets intermittent symptoms at rest (i.e., patients with bronchial asthma, paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnoea, etc.)

Definition of Multiple Disabilities

1. Multiple disabilities means a combination of two or more disabilities as defined in clause (i) of section (2) of the persons with disabilities (Equal Opportunities, Protection of Rights and Full Participation) Act, 1995, namely—

I. Locomotor disability including leprosy cured

II. Blindness/low vision

III. Speech and hearing impairment

IV. Mental retardation

V. Mental illness

Guidelines for Evaluation

2. In order to evaluate the multiple disability, the same guidelines shall be used as have been developed by the respective sub-committees of various single disability, viz. Mental retardation, locomotor disability, visual disability, and speech and hearing disability and recommended in the meeting held on 29-2-2000 under the Chairmanship of Dr. S.P. Agarwal, Director General of Health Services, Government of India, with reference to Order No. 16-18/96-NI.I, dated 28th August, 1998 and communicated to Ministry of Social Justice & Employment, Government of India, vide letter No. S-13020/4/98-MH, dated 16th March, 2000.

However, in order to arrive at the total percentage of multiple disability, the combining formula

a+b (90-a),as given in the “Manual for Doctors to Evaluate
90

Permanent Physical Impairment, Developed by Expert Group meeting on Disability Evaluation”, shall be used, where “a” will be the higher score and “b” will be the lower score. However, the maximum total percentage of multiple disabilities shall not exceed 100%.

For example, if the percentage of hearing disability is 30% and visual disability is 20%, then by applying the combining formula given above, the total percentage of multiple disability will be calculated as follows:—

30 + 20(90-30)	= 43%
90

Procedure for certification of Multiple Disability

3. The procedure will remain the same as has been developed by the respective sub-committees on various single disabilities and finalized in a meeting under the Chairpersonship of Dr. S.P. Agarwal held on 29-2-2000. The final disability certificate for multiple disability will be issued by Disability Board which has given higher score of disability by combining the score of different disabilities using the combining formula, i.e., a + b (90-a). In case, where two scores of
	90
disability are equal, the final certificate of multiple disability will be issued by any one of them as decided by Local authority.
