Change from baseline in Time Up and Go Test

Timed Up and Go Test (TUG) is a simple test used to assess mobility, balance and locomotor performance. It uses the time that a person need to rise from a chair, walk three meters, turn around 180 degrees, walk back to the chair and sit down while turning 180 degrees. The shorter the time taken to perform the test, the better the patient's mobility.

Change from baseline in 2-Minute Walking Test

The Two-Minute Walk Test (2MWT) is a simple and quick assessment used to measure a person's walking endurance and functional mobility. It is based on the measurement of the distance that a person can walk in two minutes. The individual is instructed to walk as far as possible in two minutes, typically along a marked course. Assistive devices can be used if needed but should be kept consistent across tests. The total distance walked in meters is recorded.

Change from baseline in 12-Item Short Form Survey (SF-12)

The SF-12 is a self-reported questionnaire designed to measure health-related quality of life. It is a shortened version of the SF-36, created to reduce the burden on respondents while still providing reliable and valid results. The SF-12 covers eight health domains: Physical functioning; Role-physical (limitations due to physical health problems); Bodily pain; General health; Vitality (energy and fatigue); Social functioning; Role-emotional (limitations due to emotional problems); Mental health (psychological distress and well-being). The survey produces two summary scores: Physical Component Summary (PCS) and Mental Component Summary (MCS). These scores are norm-based, with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. Scores above 50 indicate better-than-average health related quality of life, while scores below 50 suggest below-average health.

Time frame: At day 0, at day 30 and day 60

Change from baseline in Technology Assisted Rehabilitation Patient Perception Questionnaire

To assess the patient perception of the technology assisted rehabilitation using the Technology Assisted Rehabilitation Patient Perception Questionnaire (TARPP-Q). The TARPP-Q consists of 10 questions with multiple choice answers, totalling 29 items. The Questionnaire assesses patients' personal experiences and perceptions of technology assisted rehabilitation, including aspects like usability, positive attitude, hindrance perception, and distress.

Time frame: At day 0, at day 30, at day 60

Change from baseline in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease neuropathy score

The Charcot-Marie-Tooth Neuropathy Score (CMTNS) is a clinical scale used to assess the severity of Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy. This scale is used both to monitor disease progression and to assess the effectiveness of potential experimental treatments. Consists of 9 items, grouped into 3 major categories: Patient-Reported Symptoms, Clinical Examination and Electrophysiological data. Each item is scored from 0 to 4, where 0 means no impairment and 4 very severe impairment, with a total score ranges from 0 to 36.

Time frame: At day 0, day 30 and day 60

Change from baseline in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Functional Rating Scale Revised

The Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Functional Rating Scale Revised (ALSFRS-R) is a scale that includes 12 questions, related to bulbar, motor and respiratory function. This scale is commonly used to evaluate the severity and progression of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. Each item can have a score from 0 to 4, with a maximum total score of 48, where a score of 0 would indicate no function while a score of 4 would indicate normal function.

Time frame: At day 0, at day 30 and at day 60
