结局指标
主要结局
Numeric Pain Rating Scale
时间窗: 6 weeks
Changes from base Line Numeric Pain rating scale is a scale for pain starting from 0-10. Where 0 indicate no pain and 10 indicate severe pain.
Oswestry disability index
时间窗: 6 weeks
Changes from base line The Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) is an index derived from the Oswestry Low Back Pain Questionnaire used by clinicians and researchers to quantify disability for low back pain. Each topic category is followed by 6 statements describing different potential scenarios in the patient's life relating to the topic. The patient then checks the statement which most closely resembles their situation. Each question is scored on a scale of 0-5 with the first statement being zero and indicating the least amount of disability and the last statement is scored 5 indicating most severe disability. The scores for all questions answered are summed, then multiplied by two to obtain the index (range 0 to 100). Zero is equated with no disability and 100 is the maximum disability possible.
