Abstract Details

Validation of a Clinical Scale for Defining RBD Severity in Participants of the North American Prodromal Synucleinopathy (NAPS) Consortium
Sleep
P2 - Poster Session 2 (11:45 AM-12:45 PM)
1-001
The objective of this study is to assess the validity of the REM Sleep Behavior Disorder (RBD) symptom severity scale (RBDSSS) and its correlation to the clinical global impression of severity (CGI-S) in a cohort of participants enrolled in the North American Prodromal Synucleinopathy (NAPS) study.

RBD is a prodromal marker of α-synucleinopathies with no standardized tool for assessing severity in clinical or research practice. Development of a reliable scale is essential to understand risk of phenoconversion, monitor response to treatment and clinical trial design.

Participants and their bedpartners enrolled in the NAPS cohort filled out an 8-item questionnaire (RBDSSS), developed by the International RBD Study Group, assessing frequency and severity of dreams, vocalizations, movements, and injuries associated with RBD, with higher scores indicating more severe symptoms. The CGI-S is a 7-point scale ranging from normal (1) to most severely ill (7) and was completed by a clinician based on an independent interview with the participant ± their bedpartners. Data were included when both patient (RBDSSS-PT) and bedpartner (RBDSSS-BP) responses were available. Total scores were derived by multiplying assigned point values for frequency and severity (for each question) and summing them for individual RBDSSS-PT scores (total possible=54) and RBDSSS-BP scores (total possible=38).

The cohort (n=212) included in this analysis was predominantly male (n=175) with a mean ± SE age of 65.16 ± 1.46 years. The median (interquartile range) for RBDSSS-PT, RBDSSS-BP and CGI-S was 11 (4-17), 8 (4-14.3) and 3 (3-4), respectively. Non-parametric Spearman’s rank correlation coefficients (rs) for each variable pair are as follows: RBDSSS-PT vs. RBDSSS-BP, rs=0.576; RBDSSS-PT vs. CGI-S, rs=0.641; RBDSSS-BP vs. CGI-S, rs=0.463 (P<0.0001). 

A moderate correlation was observed between RBDSSS-PT and RBDSSS-BP, suggesting good construct validity for the scale. CGI-S correlated moderately with RBDSSS-PT and weakly with RBDSSS-BP.
