结局指标
主要结局
Numeric Pain Rating Scale
时间窗: From enrollment to the end of the treatment at 6 weeks
Pain intensity was measured using the Numeric Pain Rating Scale which is abbreviated as NPRS. In this tool, individuals score their pain levels on a scale from 0 to 10. When a participant selects 0, it means they had no pain. On the other hand, if it is 10, the participant must be going through the worst pain imaginable.
Oswestry Disability Index
时间窗: From enrollment to the end of the treatment at 6 weeks.
The Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) is a questionnaire that participants fill themselves based on self-reporting. It is based on disability caused by low back pain. Pynsent in Oswestry, England, introduced it in 1980. It has become one of the most widely used and trusted tools for evaluating disability related to back pain.
Lumbar Range of Motion
时间窗: From enrollment to the end of the 6 weeks
Different instruments are used in physiotherapy to measure the range of motions, like a goniometer and an inclinometer. An inclinometer is used to measure spinal ROM.
次要结局
- Lumbar Flexion(From enrollment to end of the treatment at 6 weeks.)
- Lumbar Extension(From enrollment to end of the treatment by 6 weeks.)
- Lumbar Right Lateral Flexion(From enrollment to the end of 6 weeks)
- Lumbar Left Lateral Flexion(From enrollment to end of the treatment by 6 weeks.)
