48 is the maximum possible score on the ALS Functional Rating Scale-Revised. If the patient is assumed to have the maximum score at onset, the result of the calculation represents the mean change per month. Table 2. Survival and quality of life outcomes Empty Cell Empty CellNon-invasive ...
ALS Functional Rating Scale Revised (ALSFRS-R) and %Forced Vital Capacity (%FVC) were also evaluated before and after therapy. Results: Eleven patients underwent 1 course, and three under- went 3 courses of therapy. There were no dropouts and severe adverse effect. To evaluate the effect of...
The average ALS Functional Rating Scale – Revised (ALSFRS-R) baseline score at first clinical visit was 34.08, and average decline was − 0.64 per month. Median survival was 27 months after first visit. Higher baseline ALSFRS-R score and BMI were associated with improved survival, ...

Among all measurement techniques, forced or slow vital capacity and ALS functional rating scale (ALSFRS) appear the most universally accepted evaluation techniques in ALS trials. For QoL measurements, only generic QoL instruments have been available until recently. Now ALS-specific QoL tools, such as...

Patients’ functional status and disease severity were evaluated using the Barthel Index, the revised Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Functional Rating Scale (ALSFRS-R) and the King’s Stages for ALS. The caregivers’ burden was recorded by the Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI). Comorbid anxiety and ...
