It is the most commonly used assessment tool and has been recommended as a core set measure. The CMAS was first published in 1999 by Lovell et al, however the standardized method for conducting the scale can be found below and at the International Myositis Assessment and Clinical Studies Group web site.  \nThe Criteria requires submission of a score calculated by assessing each of the 14 manoeuvres in the table and scored according the scale to yield a total maximum score of 52.  \nChildhood Myositis Assessment Scale scoring sheet  \n\n| 1.
