Hello, 

 

            In addition to my previous queries, I was also wondering if you knew of any proven correlation between the ALS-FRL-R score and the sort of devices used by the ALS patients with a certain score. 

 

Thank you,

Hello, 

 

            I am doing research on the use of high level medical technologies by those with ALS. I was particularly interested in the common interfaces like Linux/ Microsoft/etc utilized by devices commonly used amongst ALS patients. 

 

Also, if you had any information about the iuser nput devices such as clickers/ sip and puff/ eye tracking devices and their compatibility with other devices like the USB port of a HP computer, etc. 

 

Please let me know if you would like me to clarify my question or if you have any relevant insights or resources that you would be willing to direct me to. 

 

Thank you,
