Easy EDSS Score allows a quick and simple evaluation of the EDSS score for MS patients. Main features: - Easy rating of functional system scores: For each function, enter a score manually or answer a few questions about neurological exam to obtain an automatized rating. - Conversion of visual and bowel & bladder scores: Depending on versions, it is sometimes recommended to convert visual and bowel & bladder scores to lower values when determining the EDSS step. This option can be activated if needed. - Interference between pyramidal and cerebellar function assessment: As required in the EDSS assessment, if the pyramidal score is greater than 3, an alert will ask you whether there is an interference with the evaluation of cerebellar function. In this case, the cerebral score can be rated but will not be included when determining the EDSS step. Easy EDSS Score is based on the EDSS score published by Kurtzke et al. (bibliographic reference is included in the app)
