111770-4
SurveysTotal score [AIMS]
Definition
Scoring Procedure Complete the examination procedure before making ratings. For the movement ratings (the first three categories below), rate the highest severity observed. 0 = none, 1 = minimal (may be extreme normal), 2 = mild, 3 = moderate, and 4 = severe. According to the original AIMS instructions, one point is subtracted if movements are seen only on activation, but not all investigators follow that convention. The total AIMS score is calculated as the sum of items 1-7; dental items are not included in this total. This implementation subtracts 1 point for movements seen only on activation before summing the total score
