• Maximal Voluntary Isometric Contraction

  The MVIC measures muscle strength.

• McGill Pain Questionnaire

  Nervous system diseases questionnaire.

• Measuring Strength with the CITEC Hand-held Dynamometer

  A hand-held device for measuring muscle strength in the large muscle groups in defined positions.

• MGQOL15

  This is a potential QOL measure for treatment trials and the clinical evaluation of patients with MG.

• MMT for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy; Brooke 1981

  This is a manual muscle test as used for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.

• MMT for Dysferlinopathy; Jain Foundation 2010

  This is not a complete OM, but rather a coordination record for the development of an MMT suitable for application to Dysferlinopathy in clinical trials/studies.

• MMT for Facioscapulohumeral Dystrophy; Personius 1994

  This is a manual muscle test as used for Facioscapulohumeral dystrophy.

• MMT for Inclusion Body Myositis; Muscle Study Group 2001

  This is a manual muscle test as used for two inclusion body myositis trials conducted by the Muscle Study Group published in 2001 and 2004. It is based upon an MMT used for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy by Brooke et al 1981.

• MMT for Inclusion Body Myositis; Rutkove 2002

  desc

• MMT for Myasthenia Gravis; Sanders 2003

  This is a MMT for MG.

• Modified Barthel Index

  This is a generic index that assesses physical functioning in all chronic diseases and acute stages.

• Modified Fatigue Impact Scale

  This is a fatigue impact scale.

• Modified Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale

  The Modified Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale for Children with Spinal Muscular Atrophy is an adaptation of the original Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale for Children with SMA (Main et al, 2003). The original Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale for Children with SMA was modified to establish a standard measure of functional ability in children with spinal muscular atrophy Types II and III for use in longitudinal multi-center clinical trials.

• MOS Social Support Survey

  This is a generic questionnaire.

• Motor Function Measure for Neuromuscular Diseases

  The MFM is a scale to enable an objective assessment of the motor abilities of patients with neuromuscular diseases whatever the motor deficiency.

  This is a fatigue sypmtom questionnaire.

• Muscular Impairment Rating Scale

  The MIRS is a ordinal five-point rating scale.

• Myasthenia Gravis ADL

  MG activities of daily living (ADL) profile (MG-ADL) is a simple eight question survey of MG symptoms.

• Myasthenia Gravis Foundation of America Classification System

  This is an outcome measure designed for Myasthenia Gravis.

• Myasthenia Gravis Questionnaire

  A questionnaire designed to provide reliable and valid perspective measurements of the functional status of myasthenic patient's daily activities.

• Myasthenic Muscle Score

  This score measures muscle impairment.

• MyoGrip

  Precise measurement of grip strength.

• MyoStret

  Quantified measure of strength of main muscle functions (home-made QMT system).

• MyoTone Test

  The MyoTone test purpose is to assess myotonia since there is a real lack of objective methods to quantify myotonia.
