The Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) is perhaps the most widely used measure for assessing global outcome following a brain injury.
The scale was renamed the Kurtzke Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS). The EDSS provides a total score on a scale that ranges from 0 to 10. The first levels 1.0 to 4.5 refer to people with a high degree of ambulatory ability and the subsequent levels 5.0 to 9.5 refer to the loss of ambulatory ability.
