The Clinical Global Impression scale (CGI) is frequently used in clinical
research because of its face validity and ease of use but data on its
reliability are scarce. Our goal was to estimate the reliability of the scale
and compare reliability between face-to-face and video scoring. We analyzed 50
different video interviews recorded during 5 visits of a crossover trial to
study the effect of subthalamic nucleus stimulation. Six specialized clinicians
rated the CGI using these videos, providing 300 different ratings. The
intraclass correlation was lower at inclusion (0.30 [0.13-0.50]) than at later
visits (0.68 [0.61-0.80]). Reliability was not influenced by the patients’
stimulation status. The mean of at least two independent evaluations of the
video is needed to achieve an ICC greater than 0.8. The video CGI is a valid
clinical outcome measure suitable for clinical trials (ClinicalTrials.gov
number, NCT00169377).
