结局指标
主要结局
Postural Stability
时间窗: 2 weeks
Postural Stability will be measured via Biodex Balance System. A higher score signifies poor outcome.
Lumbar Disability
时间窗: 2 weeks
Lumbar Disability will be measured via Oswestry Disability Index.
Back Pain
时间窗: 2 weeks
Pain will be measured via Visual Analogue Scale. A higher score signifies poor outcome.
Lumbar Range of Motion
时间窗: 2 weeks
Lumbar Range of Motion will be measured via inclinometer. A higher score signifies good outcome.
Stride length
时间窗: 2 weeks
Stride length during gait will be analyzed using observational gait analysis. A greater stride length signifies better outcome
Gait Velocity
时间窗: 2 weeks
Velocity during gait will be analyzed using observational gait analysis. A greater gait velocity signifies better outcome
Cadence
时间窗: 2 weeks
Cadence during gait will be analyzed using observational gait analysis, which is number of steps per minute.
Disc height index
时间窗: 2 weeks
Disc height index will be analyzed using Magnetic Resonance Imaging. A greater disc height index signifies better outcome
