1. For each functional system of the KFSS, the scale points include a numeric rating (e.g. “0”) and a description of what is represented by the rating (e.g. “Normal”) with the exception of the “Unknown” option, which does not have a numeric rating.  QSORRES RSORRES is populated with the rating description.  For the options with a numeric rating, QSSTRESC RSSTRESC and QSSTRESN RSSTRESN are populated with the numeric rating.  Otherwise, QSSTRESC RSSTRESC is populated with the rating description and QSSTRESN RSSTRESN is left blank.
2. For item KFSS104, one of the rating definitions is longer than the 200 character limit imposed by SAS v5 transport files.  The QS QRS sub-team has paraphrased the text to shorten the responses.  The original and modified values are summarized in Section 5.
3. Items KFSS102A and KFSS106A have the instruction “check here” when the subject has the specified condition (weakness, temporal pallor).  QSORRES RSORRES and QSSTRESC RSSTRESC = “CHECKED” or “NOT CHECKED”.  QSSTRESN RSSTRESN is always left blank.
4. Item KFSS108A will only be answered if KFSS108 has QSORRES RSORRES = “Any other neurologic findings attributed to MS (specify)”.  If KFSS108A is not answered, do not create a record in SDTM for it.
5. Terminology:
   1. RSCAT, RSTESTCD and RSTEST are approved CDISC controlled terminology.
   2. A full list of value sets for qualifier and result fields is provided in Section 4: SDTM Mapping Strategy.
