- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index 8 weeks This index evaluates sleep quality and disturbance over the past month. It contains a total of 24 questions. 19 of these questions are answered by the person's self-assessment, and 5 of them are answered by the roommate who shares the same room with the person. The 5 questions answered by the person's roommate are not included when calculating the score. In scoring, the lowest (0) and the highest (21) points are obtained. A score of 4 and above indicates poor sleep quality.
Rapid Upper Limb Assessment 8 weeks It is an ergonomics risk assessment method that quickly analyzes the employee's upper extremity from an ergonomic perspective. It evaluates upper extremity movements in 14 separate steps. 8 of these steps are scored for arm and hand position, and 6 for neck and trunk position, according to the table. The minimum Rapid Upper Limb Assessment Score = 1, and the maximum Rapid Upper Limb Assessment Score = 7. A high score means high risk.
Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand Questionnaire 8 weeks It was developed to evaluate functional status and symptoms by focusing on physical function in upper extremity injuries. According to the results of the survey; a result from 0-100 is obtained from each part; 0-no apology 100-maximum apology.
Neck disability index 8 weeks There are 10 parameters in the Neck disability index, each with 6 answer choices. These; The severity of neck pain is personal care, lifting loads, reading, headache, concentration, business life, driving, sleep and leisure activities. It is scored between 0 (no pain or functional limitation) and 5 (maximum pain and maximum limitation). The subjects were asked to choose the most appropriate option for themselves from each parameter. At the end of the survey, the total score was determined by adding up the scores of the selected options. In the Neck disability index, 35 points and above were defined as complete apology, 25 to 34 points as severe apology, 15 to 24 points as moderate apology, 5 to 14 points as mild apology, and 0 to 4 points as no apology.
