There seems to be some controversy as to when the LCSS should be administered. What is the standard procedure?
Standard procedures for both the patient and observer scales have been outlined in the manual. The LCSS manual addresses administration, telephone procedure, scoring, and coding in detail. The telephone procedure should be done only when it is impractical to administer in person and the patient has had an initial face-to-face assessment in which the visual analogue scale was demonstrated and an example question was comprehended by the patient.
