Eugene Moskowitz and Cairbre B. McCann‚ 1957 and Granger‚ 1979

P - Physical condition: Includes diseases of the viscera (cardiovascular‚ gastrointestinal‚ urologic‚ and endocrine) and neurologic disorders:
1.    Medical problems sufficiently stable that medical or nursing monitoring is not required more often than 3-month intervals.
2.    Medical or nurse monitoring is needed more often than 3-month intervals but not each week.
3.    Medical problems are sufficiently unstable as to require regular medical and/or nursing attention at least weekly.
4.    Medical problems require intensive medical and/or nursing attention at least daily (excluding personal care assistance only).
U - Upper limb functions: Self-care activities (drink/feed‚ dress upper/lower‚ brace/prosthesis‚ groom‚ wash‚ perineal care) dependent mainly upon upper limb function:
1.    Independent in self-care without impairment of upper limbs.
2.    Independent in self-care with some impairment of upper limbs.
3.    Dependent upon assistance or supervision in self-care with or without impairment of upper limbs.
4.    Dependent totally in self-care with marked impairment of upper limbs.
L - Lower limb functions: Mobility (transfer chair/toilet/tub or shower‚ walk‚ stairs‚ wheelchair) dependent mainly upon lower limb function:
1.    Independent in mobility without impairment of lower limbs.
2.    Independent in mobility with some impairment in lower limbs; such as needing ambulatory aids‚ a brace or prosthesis‚ or else fully independent in a wheelchair without significant architectural or environmental barriers.
3.    Dependent upon assistance or supervision in mobility with or without impairment of lower limbs‚ or partly independent in a wheelchair‚ or there are significant architectural or environmental barriers.
4.    Dependent totally in mobility with marked impairment of lower limbs.
S - Sensory components: Relating to communication (speech and hearing) and vision:
1.    Independent in communication and vision without impairment.
2.    Independent in communication and vision with some impairment such as mild dysarthria‚ mild aphasia‚ or need for eyeglasses or hearing aid‚ or needing regular eye medication.
3.    Dependent upon assistance‚ an interpreter‚ or supervision in communication or vision.
4.    Dependent totally in communication or vision.
E - Excretory functions: (bladder and bowel):
1.    Complete voluntary control of bladder and bowel sphincters.
2.    Control of sphincters allows normal social activities despite urgency or need for catheter‚ appliance‚ suppositories‚ etc. Able to care for needs without assistance.
3.    Dependent upon assistance in sphincter management or else has accidents occasionally.
4.    Frequent wetting or soiling from incontinence of bladder or bowel sphincters.

4.    Dependent upon long-term institutional care (chronic hospitalization‚ nursing home‚ etc.) excluding time limited hospital for specific evaluation‚ treatment‚ or active rehabilitation.

P = physical condition‚ U= upper limb functions‚ L= lower limb functions‚ S = sensory components (speech‚ vision‚ hearing)‚ E= excretory functions‚ S =mental and emotional status
