Prosthetic Limb Users Survey of Mobility (PLUS-M™)
Technology No. 46452
The Prosthetic Limb Users Survey of Mobility (PLUS-M™) is a bank of calibrated questions for measuring mobility of adults with lower limb amputation. The PLUS-M™ item bank has been rigorously developed using modern psychometric methodology and is intended for use in clinical practice and research. PLUS-M™ instruments (i.e., computer adaptive test and short forms) are based on the PLUS-M™ item bank. Information about PLUS-M™ can be found on our website at https://plus-m.org.
