Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Change From Baseline in Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life-54 Questionnaire (MSQoL-54) Physical Health Composite Summary and Mental Health Composite Summary Scores at Month 24
Time Frame: Baseline, Month 24
The MSQOL-54 was a multidimensional health-related QOL measure that combines both generic and MS-specific items into a single instrument. This 54-item instrument generates 12 sub-scales along with two summary scores, and two additional single-item measures. Sub-scales are: physical function, role limitations-physical, role limitations-emotional, pain, emotional well-being, energy, health perceptions, social function, cognitive function, health distress, overall quality of life, and sexual function. The two summary scores physical health and mental health are derived from a weighted combination of scale scores. Each composite summary score has a range from 0-100 where higher scores indicate better QOL. A positive change from baseline indicates improvement.
