Modifications of scoring include normalizing the total score on a scale of 0-100 through mathematical transformations, as well as the use of a Trial Outcome Index (TOI).

The WHODAS is considered ...

A score of zero means that no comorbidities were found; the higher the score, the higher the predicted mortality rate is. [2] [3] For a physician, this score is helpful in deciding how aggressively to treat a condition. It is one of the most widely used scoring system for comorbidities. [4]
The fatigue allowance is intended to cover the time that the worker should be given to overcome fatigue due to work related stress and conditions. There are three factors that cause fatigue: (1) physical factors like standing and use of force, (2) mental and cognitive factors like mental strain and eye strain , and (3) environmental and work ...
