The number lock key has been virtually replaced by separate navigational and numerical entry keypads. The SysRq key never had a function â it was created strictly for a future function that did not materialize. Many computer keyboards don't include a scroll lock key, although a few do, perhaps for nostalgic purposes.
The NPRS is an 11-point scale from 0-10. â0â = no pain. â10â = the most intense pain imaginable. Patients verbally select a value that is most in line with the intensity of pain that they have experienced in the last 24 hours. A written form is also frequently used with the numeric values of 0 â 10 written out.
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.
