Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | The intensity of cervical pain | A 10-point Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS; 0: no pain, 10: maximum pain) will be used to assess the patients' current level of cervical pain, and the worst and lowest level of pain experienced in the preceding week in the cervical area. | Baseline | |
Secondary | The intensity of cervical pain | A 10-point Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS; 0: no pain, 10: maximum pain) will be used to assess the patients' current level of cervical pain, and the worst and lowest level of pain experienced in the preceding week in the cervical area. | Four weeks | |
Secondary | The intensity of cervical pain | A 10-point Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS; 0: no pain, 10: maximum pain) will be used to assess the patients' current level of cervical pain, and the worst and lowest level of pain experienced in the preceding week in the cervical area. | Eight weeks | |
Secondary | Active cervical range of motion | Measured by goniometer type crom | Baseline, four weeks and eight weeks | |
Secondary | Pressure pain thresholds in cervical trigger points | Pressure pain thresholds (PPTs) will be measured with a pressure algometer (Baseline, Pain TestTM, Wagner Instruments). The clinimetric properties of this instrument have been evaluated previously. The PPT will the point at which pressure elicited pain and will presented as kilograms per square centimeter. All measurements will be conducted by the same well-trained physician. | Baseline, four weeks and eight weeks |
