What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Northwick Park Neck Pain Questionnaire

    Each parameter of Northwick Park Neck Pain Questionnaire has divided into 5 answers with total of 10 parameters. Each parameter is divided in five answer possibilities with points from 0 till 4. 0 is significant for no pain and 4 is significant for worst pain.

    Measured: 1st day

  2. Neck Disability Index

    Neck Disability Index includes ten questions that assess pain intensity, personal care, lifting, reading, headaches, attention, work, driving, sleeping, and recreational activities. Every question is graded on a scale of 0 to 5 (no disability to total disability).

    Measured: 1st day

  3. Visual Analogue Scale

    The Visual Analogue Scale was created to represent the concept of a fundamental continuity. A Visual Analogue Scale is typically a straight stripe measuring 100 mm long, with word descriptions for each end. The patient draws a line through the spot on the line which they believe best describes their present state. The Visual Analogue Scale score is calculated by calculating in millimeters as from the line's left side to the point marked by that of the patient. It usually ranges from "0" indicating "no pain" to the "10" indicating "worst pain".

    Measured: 1st day

  4. Numeric Pain Rating Scale

    Numeric Pain Rating Scale has a line value ranging from 1 to 10, 1 being the no pain label and 10 being the worst pain.
