The inter-rater reliability of the Turkish version of Aphasia Rapid Test for stroke. Background: The Aphasia Rapid Test (ART) is a short bedside aphasia screening test developed originally in French for use with post-stroke patients in the acute phase of recovery.Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess the inter-rater reliability of the Turkish version of the ART in stroke patients (ICTRP ID: NCT04386837).Methods: The French ART was translated into Turkish. Inter-rater reliability was assessed in 30 post-stroke patients with aphasia by two independent speech-language pathologists blind to each other's ratings.Results: 30 patients (18 men, 12 women; mean age 64.43 ± 16.60 years) were included within 10 days of stroke onset, as assessed by clinical examination and confirmed by CT and/or MRI. The mean (± SD) ART value was 16.26 (± 8.05) for rater 1 and 16.43 (±8.14) for rater 2. The inter-rater concordance coefficient was 0.997 (95% CI 0.994-0.999; p < .001).Conclusions: Findings indicate that the Turkish version of the original ART was successfully administered in Turkish-speaking patients.
