Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Range of motion	Range of movement will be assessed by measuring displacement of the body part being moved (i.e. moving the head, back, arm or leg from a neutral position to end of range in flexion, extension, rotation, addiction or abduction)	During a single test session (approximately 2hours)
Secondary	Experienced pain	Any potential pain during the functional tasks will be monitored using a 0-11 numeric rating scale (NRS) with 0 being no pain and 10 being worst imaginable pain	During a single test session (approximately 2hours)
Secondary	Experienced difficultness of performing movement	a 6-point Likert scale going from 0 = 'no problems',; 1 = minimally difficult; 2 = somewhat difficult; 3 = fairly difficult; 4 = very difficult; 5 = unable to perform	During a single test session (approximately 2hours)
