Description:

The Victoria Hospice Palliative Performance Scale version 2 (PPSv2) is an 11-point scale designed to measure a patient's performance status in 10% decrements from 100% (healthy) to 0% (death) based on five observable parameters: ambulation, ability to do activities, self-care, food/fluid intake, and consciousness level.  For copies of the PPS translated in French, Thai, Japanese and other languages or to view other valuable clinical tools and resources developed by the Victoria Hospice, please check the website at: https://www.victoriahospice.org/i-am-health-care-professional/clinical-tools
