A Visual Analogue Scale is typically a straight stripe measuring 100 mm long, with word descriptions for each end. The patient draws a line through the spot on the line which they believe best describes their present state. The Visual Analogue Scale score is calculated by calculating in millimeters as from the line's left side to the point marked by that of the patient. It usually ranges from "0" indicating "no pain" to the "10" indicating "worst pain".

  4. Numeric Pain Rating Scale
