ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: To validate a novel mobility test (MOST, MObility Standardized Test) and performance outcomes in real (RL) and virtual (VR) environments to be used for interventional clinical studies in order to characterize vision impairment in rod-cone dystrophies, also known as retinitis pigmentosa (RP). DESIGN: Prospective, interventional, noninvasive, reliability and validity analysis. METHODS: We designed MOST to be used in both VR and RL and conducted 3 experimental studies with 89 participants to (1) validate the difficulty of the mobility courses (15 controls), (2) determine the optimal number of light levels and training trials (14 participants with RP), and (3) validate the reproducibility (test-retest), reliability (VR/RL), sensitivity, and construct/content validity of the test (30 participants with RP and 30 controls). A comprehensive ophthalmologic examination was performed in all subjects. Outcomes of interest included MOST performance score, visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, dark adaptation thresholds, visual field parameters, and correlation between the performance score and visual function. RESULTS: The mobility courses exhibited statistically similar difficulty, and 5 trials are sufficient to control for the learning effect. MOST is highly reproducible (test-retest correlations >0.98) and reliable (correlations VR/RL = 0.98). MOST achieved a discrimination between participants with RP and controls (accuracy >95%) and between early and late stages of the disease (82.3% accuracy). The performance score is correlated with visual function parameter (0.57-0.94). CONCLUSION: MOST is a validated mobility test, with the controlled learning effect, excellent reproducibility, and high agreement between RL and VR conditions, as well as sensitivity and specificity to measure disease progression and therapeutic benefit in rod-cone dystrophies.
