LOINC description : The 12 items in the ALSFRS-R are rated on a 5-point scale, 0 to 4, with a maximum
score of 48 indicating the highest level of functioning. There is not information
on the clinical interpretation of scores (i.e. a score in this range is classified
as this level of functioning), but there is some evidence that scores are predictive
of 9-month survival (90% for patients with scores over 30; 76% for patients with scores
under 30). [PMID:10540002];
