Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Other	Convergent validity	The value of Pearson correlation coefficient for Pelvic girdle questionnaire with Ostwestry disability index is 0.840 and NRS is 0.772.For the calculation of construct validity of PGQ we used Pearson's correlation coefficient with 5% significance. The correlation between week 1 and week 2 for each item of PGQ scale was ranging from 0.871-0.990. . We compared PGQ with ODI scale and Numeric rating pain scale. The construct validity of PGQ was measured by confidence interval 95% and level of significance at 5%.	"through study completion, an average of 1 year"
Other	Test Retest reliability:	The tool reliability analyzes by ICC. The value of Intra class correlation for PGQ is 0.979 with 95 % of confidence interval.	"through study completion, an average of 1 year"
Primary	Content validity	Content validity score measured by content validity index. Assessment of 25 items by Clinician and native speaker experts rate all the items and all the value are above 0.70.Lower value was 0.92 and the highest value is 1 which is maximum value. Maximum score is given to 4, 5, 6,10,11,12,17,18,22 and 24 by experts (medical specialist and native speakers).	"through study completion, an average of 1 year"
Secondary	Internal consistency:	Cronbach's alpha was used for reliability. The reliability and internal consistency of PGQ for PGP patients Cronbach's alpha in week one and week two is 0.977 and 0.976 respectively. The value of a for activity subscale (1-20) is 0.986 and symptom subscale (21- 25) is 0.970.	"upto two weeks"
