Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) scale

The Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) scale is a tool used by physicians to evaluate the overall severity of a patient's disease. It's a subjective assessment, typically on a scale of 0 to 3 or 0 to 4, with higher scores indicating more severe disease activity. The PGA focuses on the overall disease activity, considering both the severity of active manifestations and relevant laboratory results, excluding organ damage and subjective findings unrelated to disease activity
