Design outcomes

| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| ICOS will result in a combined data- and biobank of well defined patients with CIDP. The primary study parameters will include the grip strength measured by using a Vigorimeter or Jamar dynamometer and the Rasch-MRC sum score. Furthermore we will use several standardized validated clinical outcome measure scales such as: Rasch-built Overall Disability Scale(R-ODS), modified INCAT sensory scale, Pain Intensity Rating scale, Rasch-Fatigue Severity Scale(FSS) and EuroQoL-5D questionnaire. | — |
