Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Upper Back Pain or Discomfort Upper Back Pain or Discomfort will be quantified using Visual Analogue Scale. A higher score signifies greater pain or discomfort on a 0-100mm line. 3 weeks
Primary Thoracic Kyphosis Thoracic Kyphosis will be quantified using an inclinometer. A higher score signifies increased Kyphosis. 3 weeks
Primary Thoracic Range of Motion (ROM) Thoracic Range of Motion (ROM) will be quantified using an inclinometer. A higher score signifies greater mobility of thoracic spine. 3 weeks
Primary Forward Head Posture Forward Head Posture will be quantified via Craniovertebral Angle (CVA). A smaller CVA indicates increased forward head posture. 3 weeks
Primary Functional ability Functional ability will be quantified using Spine Functional Index (SFA). A smaller SFA score indicates greater functional ability. 3 weeks
