Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Inclusion Body Myositis Functional Rating Scale (IBMFRS)

    The IBMFRS is a 10 item questionnaire. Scores for each item range from 0 to 4. There is a total maximum score of 40 and minimum score of 0. The higher the score the better functional status of the person.
