Rett Syndrome Severity Scale (RSSS)

Score Rett syndrome clinical severity using the Rett Syndrome Severity Scale across hand use, ambulation, communication, seizure frequency, and breathing abnormalities to classify disease stage and monitor natural history.

Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Score Rett syndrome clinical severity using the Rett Syndrome Severity Scale across hand use, ambulation, communication, seizure frequency, and breathing abnormalities to classify disease stage and monitor natural history

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Rett Syndrome Severity Scale across hand use — The rett syndrome severity scale across hand use recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Ambulation — The ambulation recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Communication — The communication recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Seizure frequency — The seizure frequency recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Breathing abnormalities — The breathing abnormalities recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the rett syndrome severity result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the Rett Syndrome Severity Scale across hand use, ambulation, communication, seizure frequency, breathing abnormalities for the scenario you are assessing. Score Rett syndrome clinical severity using the Rett Syndrome Severity Scale across hand use, ambulation, communication, seizure frequency, and breathing abnormalities to classify disease stage and monitor natural history. Use the rett syndrome severity result to inform your calculation.
