The BFI assesses the fatigue severity in patients with CMT. The measure comprises 10 items, although the first item asks about usual fatigue over the past week (with the respondent answering "yes" or "no") and is not included in the overall score. The remaining nine items assess general fatigue within two subscales: fatigue severity (three items), and the impact of fatigue on daily functioning (six items). The measure uses a 10-point numeric rating scale, and a recall period of 24 hours. A global fatigue score can be calculated by averaging all nine items.

The PROMIS pain intensity measure includes two items that assess pain intensity over the last 7 days (average and worst pain), and one for pain intensity "right now"; each scores using a 5-point scale. Scores range from 2-10. Higher scores represent worst pain. This measure is generic rather than disease-specific.

The PROMIS pain interference measure assesses the extent to which pain hinders engagement with social, cognitive, emotional, physical and recreational activities, sleep, and enjoyment in life over the last 7 days using a 5-point scale. Scores range from 8-40. Higher scores represent worse interference. This measure is generic rather than disease-specific.

Two cramp-specific items were developed for inclusion in the survey, measuring cramp frequency and intensity. The cramp frequency item asks "In the past 7 days, how many days did you experience cramp?" and has five possible responses: had no cramp, 1-2 days, 3-4 days, 5-6 days, every day. The cramp intensity item asks "In the past 7 days, how intense was your cramp at its worst?" and has five possible responses: had no cramp, mild, moderate, severe, very severe. Higher scores on both items represent greater cramp frequency and intensity respectively.

The PROMIS sleep disturbance measure assesses self-reported perceptions of sleep quality, sleep depth, and restoration associated with sleep over the last 7 days using a 5-point scale. Scores range from 8-40. Higher scores represent worse sleep disturbance. This measure is generic rather than disease-specific.

The FES-I measures the level of concern about falling during social and physical activities inside and outside hte home, whether or not the person actually does the activity. The "usual" level of concern is measured on a four-point Likert scale (1 = not at all concerned to 4 = very concerned), with a time frame of "usual". Scores range from 16-64. Higher scores represent greater concern about falling.

The LEFS evaluates difficulties because of lower limb problems in 20 activities, including work/school activities, hobbies, moving around the home, dressing, lifting, standing, sitting, walking, and running. The level of difficulty is assessed for "today" using a 5-point Likert scale (0 = extreme difficulty or unable to perform activity; 5 = No difficulty). Lower scores represent greater difficulties experience because of lower limb problems.

The QuickDash measure uses 11 items to measure physical function and symptoms in people with any or multiple musculoskeletal disorders of the upper limb. Six questions relate to the ability to perform six activities over the last week, ranging from opening a jar, carrying, washing and recreational activities; two questions relate to impact on social and daily activities; two questions ask the person to rate the severity of pain and tingling in the arms, shoulder or hand, and one question relates to the effects of pain on sleep. All questions are rated 1-5 (no difficulty/none/not at all through to unable/extreme difficulty). Scores range from 11-55. Higher scores represent greater difficulties with physical function and symptoms.
