Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
questionnaire and scale12 weeks

McGill pain scale was developed by Melzack in 1987 and its validity and reliability in Turkish Yakut et al. (2007). In this study, the Short Form-McGill Pain Questionnaire (KF-MAA), whose validity and reliability was used and frequently used by Biçici (2010), was applied. This questionnaire consists of a total of 15 descriptive words to determine the sensory (11 words) and affective (4 words) dimensions of pain. In this section, the severity of pain (0 = none, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe) is evaluated and three pain scores (sensory, affective and total pain rate = sensory affective) are obtained. In addition, the pain felt at the time of measurement is measured with the Visuel Analog Scale (VAS) and the total pain intensity is measured with a 6-point Likert scale. On this scale, 0 = no pain, 1 = mild, 2 = disturbing, 3 = distressing, 4 = terrible, 5 = unbearable pain.
