Sumari: This work proposes the development of the evolution scale for neurosensory-motor pathology through a statistical approach and the use of response time tests. Reference data are collected in two groups: i) individuals are affected and ii) individuals are not affected with Multiple Sclerosis. A portable metering device is developed with the differential of measuring simple and choice response times for upper and lower limbs with the use of auditory and visual stimuli. A method is proposed to evaluate the effectiveness of the rehabilitation process of patients with neurosensory-motor impairment through standardized quantitative measures that aid in clinical decisions and treatment. The result of the proposed method is the multidimensional graph consisting of competing axes formed by normalized scales between 0% and 100% that indicate the level of neurosensory-motor impairment assessed from the response time data. The data distribution is analyzed using the maximum likelihood method, descriptive statistics and the use of the scale and graph model proposed is demonstrated and compared with the Kurtzke Expanded Disability Status Scale in Multiple Sclerosis patients.
