Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) patient's self-assessment of pain, in the range of 0 to 10, higher scores mean a worse outcome. at baseline (before the treatment)
Primary Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) patient's self-assessment of pain, in the range of 0 to 10, higher scores mean a worse outcome 2 weeks after baseline (at the end of treatment)
Primary Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) patient's self-assessment of pain, in the range of 0 to 10, higher scores mean a worse outcome 6 weeks after baseline (one month after the end of treatment)
Primary Neck Disability Index (NDI) a self-report questionnaire used to determine how neck pain affects a patient's daily life and to assess the self-rated disability of patients with neck pain. The total score ranges from 0 (no disability) to 50 (total disability). at baseline (before the treatment)
