The Borg Category-Ratio scale or Borg CR-10 scale is a self-report tool to measure the intensity of perceived effort.[1][2] The Borg CR-10 is similar to the Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion Scale, but ratings are from 0 to 10 rather than 6 to 20.[3][4]

Theory[edit | edit source]

The scale scores perceived effort from 0 (no effort at all) to 10 (absolute maximum).[5]

Evidence[edit | edit source]

The World Health Organization has suggested using the Borg CR-10 scale to assess effort when doing rehabilitation to recover from the effects of COVID-19.[6]

Cost and availability[edit | edit source]

The Borg CR-10 is copyrighted but is widely available and free to use in many hospitals or health settings, and on websites such as the World Health Organization and CDC.
