Primary | Neck Pain Disability Index Questionnaire | The scale includes 10 titles. It includes pain sensitivity, heavy lifting, personal hygiene, reading, sleep, headache, concentration, work, driving, social activities. There are 6 answer options according to the severity of the limitation or pain. Scoring is between 0 and 5. The highest score is 50 and the least is 0. The neck disability level classification according to the total score is as follows 0-4: no restrictions 5-14: mild limitation 15-24: moderate limitation 25-34: severe limitation 34 and up: completely restricted | 8 weeks | |
Primary | The Quebec Back Pain Disability Scale (QBPDS) | The problems caused by back pain are evaluated with 20 different activities from the scale. Its rating is between 0-5. 0 points are expressed as "not difficult at all" and 5 points are expressed as "it is not possible to do". The total score is obtained by summing the answers given to the 20 activities. | 8 weeks | |
Primary | Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) | In the evaluation of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, 18 items are included in the scoring. The scale has a total of 7 components: sleep duration, habitual sleep efficiency, subjective sleep quality, sleep delay, sleep disturbance, daytime dysfunction, and sleep medication use. Some of the components consist of a single item, while others consist of groupings of several items. Each item scores between 0-3 and the sum of the scores of the 7 components forms the PSQI score. The total score is between 0-21. A high total score indicates a low sleep quality. A total PSQI score of =5 indicates "good sleep quality", and >5 indicates "poor sleep quality". | 8 weeks | |
Primary | Work Role Functioning Questionnaire (WRFQ) | The scale evaluates the difficulties experienced by people while doing their jobs as a percentage of time. In addition, the questionnaire evaluates the effectiveness of the treatment applied. It has five sub-headings as work program (5 questions), Efficiency (7 questions), Physical (6 questions), Mental (6 questions) and Social status (3 questions). It is a scale with 27 questions in total. This scale assesses how often individuals have had difficulties while doing their jobs in the last four weeks. If the expression defined in the question is not related to the profession of the person, he is asked to mark the option "It is not suitable for my profession". | 8 weeks |
