BackgroundThe reliability of the Progressive Supranuclear Palsy Rating Scale (PSPRS) using teleneurology has not been assessed.ObjectivesTo test whether removing items inadequately assessed by video would impact measurement of PSP severity and progression.MethodsWe performed secondary analyses of two data sets: the phase 2/3 trial of Davunetide in PSP and a large single-center cohort. We examined two modifications of the PSPRS: (1) removing neck rigidity, limb rigidity, and postural stability (25 items; mPSPRS-25) and (2) also removing three ocular motor items and limb dystonia (21 items; mPSPRS-21). Proportional agreement relative to the possible total scores was measured using the intraclass correlation coefficient, compared to the original PSPRS baseline values and change over 6 and 12 months. We examined the ability of both scales to predict survival in the single-center cohort using proportional hazards models.ResultsThe mPSPRS-25 showed excellent agreement (0.99; P
