Modified Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale Color Component Comparing Change From Baseline to Week 12. Primary · 12 weeks

Patient reported assessment scale of pain, itch, color, and texture. Each element (pain, itch, color, and texture) is graded on a 1-10 scale. The lowest score is '1', which corresponds to the situation of normal skin/no symptoms (i.e. not different in color, not different in texture, no itching, no pain). Score 10 equals the largest difference from normal skin (i.e. severely painful, severely itchy, vert different color, very different texture).
