Visual analogue scale and the analysis of analgesic action
European Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 1983A double-blind randomized trial was carried out in 90 male patients suffering from pain after meniscectomy. The patients received a single dose of paracetamol 1000 mg plus codeine 60 mg, paracetamol 1000 mg, codeine 60 mg, or placebo. The tablets were taken when needed after surgery and the postoperative pain was recorded on a visual analogue scale ...

Evaluating the visual experience: visual acuity and the visual analogue scale
Ophthalmic and Physiological Optics, 2003AbstractPurpose: To attempt a comparison of the visual experience [assessed using a visual analogue scale (VAS)] with visual acuity in a group of normally‐sighted adult optometric patients.Methods: A single‐item 100 mm paper VAS was administered to a sequence of 142 normally‐sighted pre‐presbyopic patients.

Visual vertigo analogue scale: An assessment questionnaire for visual vertigo
Journal of Vestibular Research, 2011A common symptom for people with vestibulopathy is dizziness induced by dynamic visual input, known as visual vertigo (VV). The goal of this study is to present a novel method to assess VV, using a nine-item analog scale. The subjects rated the intensity of their dizziness on each item of the Visual Vertigo Analogue Scale (VVAS), which represented a ...

On the linearity of predefined and self‐anchoring Visual Analogue Scales
British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, 2008Two functional measurement studies were conducted to test the effect of two types of end anchors on the linearity of Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) data. With the first type of end anchors, participants responded to the stimuli using a VAS with predefined end anchors.

Assessment of postoperative nausea using a visual analogue scale
Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, 2000Background: Assessment of postoperative nausea intensity is difficult because nausea is a subjective and unpleasant sensation. We propose using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) device to increase the efficiency and precision in the assessment of nausea. We carried out a pilot study on postoperative patients suffering from nausea to measure the degree of

syn. linear analogue self assessment (LASA); scale with finite boundaries at 0 and 100 mm (end of the scale) for the conventional 10 cm line presentation; in general such scales are more reliable and sensitive but also more difficult to explain to patients than e.g.

Predictors of a child's ability to use a visual analogue scale
Child: Care, Health and Development, 2003AbstractBackground Visual analogue scales (VAS) are used to assess the strength of perceptions of both children and adults in many clinical and research settings. Although the VAS has been shown by some authors to be reliable for use by children aged 5 years and older, others have proposed that young children, generally ≤ 7 years of age, may not have ...
