The Scoring Clinical Index for Onychomycosis (SCIO index).

Onychomycosis is a common disease, and there are a number of factors that may affect the duration and dosage of treatment including the type of onychomycosis, the area and thickness of nail involvement, the age of the patient, and the location of the digit that is affected. We report a composite index, the Scoring Clinical Index for Onychomycosis (SCIO) that combines these factors to give an index of the overall severity of onychomycosis. The use of the SCIO may have treatment implications; by matching patients with similar SCIO scores, it may be possible to better compare the clinical response to therapy.
