Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Pain intensity | Pain intensity measured by numerical pain rating scale (11 points scale) | Change from baseline in pain intensity at four weeks after intervention and 1 month of follow-up | |
Primary | Functional performance associated to back pain | Functional performance associated with low back pain measured by Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire (24 itens) | Change from baseline in functional performance at four weeks after intervention and 1 month of follow-up | |
Secondary | Pressure pain threshold | Pressure pain threshold measured by pressure algometer. | Change from baseline in pressure pain threshold at four weeks after intervention and 1 month of follow-up | |
Secondary | Individual quality of life | Measurement of quality of life using SF-36 questionnaire (36 items, divided into 8 subscales) | Change from baseline in quality of life questionnaires at four weeks after intervention and 1 month of follow-up | |
Secondary | Patient global impression of change | Patient global impression of change measured by a scale with seven points, where 1 is equal to no change or worse and 7 is much better. | Change from baseline in Patient global impression of change at each intervention day and at four weeks of intervention and 1 month of follow-up. | |
Secondary | Central Sensitization | Evaluation of Central Sensitization using Central Sensitization Inventory (CSI).The questionnaire is divided into two parts, the first with a score from 0 to 100 measures 25 somatic and emotional symptoms, while the second part relates to specific previous diagnoses. | Change from baseline of central sensitization at four weeks after intervention and 1 month of follow-up. | |
Secondary | Adverse events | Patient perception of any adverse event during the intervention protocol. | Up to 4 weeks of intervention and 1 month of follow-up. | |
