What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Exercise Training ProgramOther
10min of coordination and strength training (2-3x per week) during 2-6 weeks
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Exercise Training Program | Experimental | Not described Receives: Other: Exercise Training Program |
| Control | No intervention | Not described |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
d2-R-Test
Mental
Measured: Change from baseline attention and concentration at 4 weeks (objective)
AKA-Questionnaire (attention, concentration, learning ability)
Participants fill out a questionnaire about attention, concentration and learning ability. There are five possible answers for each item from 1 (completely disagree) to 5 (completely agree).
Measured: Change from baseline attention and concentration at 4 weeks (subjective)
M360 - physiological parameter of the spine
Participants are measured in different positions (upright, flexion, extension; measured in degrees) to assess position, stability and mobility of the spine. The M360 will be guided along the back and the data will be collected electronically (https://www.idiag.ch/idiag-m360/).
Measured: Change from baseline position and mobility of the spine at 4 weeks
Pain (Visual Analogue Scale)
Participants can use this scale to classify their pain from "No pain" and "Maximum pain imaginable" by means of a slider.
Measured: Change from baseline pain (back) at 4 weeks
FAW-Questionnaire (Actual physical well-being)
Participants fill out a questionnaire with 58 questions. Each question has five possible answers from 0 (completely disagree) to 4 (completely agree). The highter the score the better the actual physical well-being.
Measured: Change from baseline physical well-being at 4 weeks
