结局指标
主要结局
Electrodermal activity
时间窗: Change from baseline and immediately post-intervention
Electrodermal Activity will be measured through the use of two electrodes that recorded changes in conductance through the skin located at the back of the dominant hand
Respiration Rate
时间窗: Change from baseline and immediately post-intervention
Respiration Rate will be measured through a pressure transducer located in the centre of the chest, where it was fixed by a strap.
Pain pressure threshold
时间窗: Change from baseline and immediately post-intervention
Pressure Pain Threshold (PPT) is one of these tests and it is defined as the minimum force applied which induces pain. The measurement shall be carried out by using an algometer (pressure device that induces mechanical stimuli) is to standardize the amount of pressure applied in the neck region. The reliability of pressure pain thresholds according to raters or measurement frequencies is relatively high
Temporal sumation
时间窗: Change from baseline and immediately post-intervention
Temporal summation is a somatosensory measure that is performed by making small punctures in the area of interest.
Salivary stress
时间窗: Change from baseline and immediately post-intervention.
The Salivary Stress Test is a study that assesses fatigue and the type of stress (acute, moderate or chronic) presented by the subject.
Heart rate
时间窗: Change from baseline and immediately post-intervention.
Heart Rate will be measured by three electrodes located in the left area of the chest. One of the electrodes was placed in the middle zone while a second electrode was positioned on the lateral side, and a third one on the lower left side, below the first electrode.
次要结局
- The degree of physical activity(Immediately before the intervention.)
- Visual and Kinesthetic Motor Imagery Ability(Change from baseline and immediately post-intervention)
