ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION/AIMS: The aim of the study was to determine the association between the virtual Myasthenia Gravis Impairment Index (vMGII) with other patient-reported outcomes (PROs) of myasthenia gravis (MG) and its usefulness in telephone consultations with MG patients.
METHODS: This was a retrospective case series in which vMGII score along with virtual Single Simple Question (vSSQ), virtual PASS (vPASS) response and patient disease status based on MGFA post intervention status during telephone consultation were collected along with the MGII, SSQ and PASS responses during the preceding in-person clinic visits.
