Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Pain Pressure threshold that the pressure sensation becomes a sensation of pain or discomfort. Timepoint: Three times before and immediately after treatment. Method of measurement: The algorithmic device has a disc with a cross-sectional area of 1 cm2, which is pressed perpendicular to the desired point, to start the patient's pain.This test is performed 3 times for each point with a time interval of 30 seconds and an average of three data is recorded.;Pain measured by the visual scale of pain, which is between zero and ten. Timepoint: before and immediately after treatment. Method of measurement: The visual scale of the pain is a 100 mm unmarked ruler, with the number zero in the painless position and the number 100 in the most painful position. After acquainting the person with this diagram, we ask him to mark the amount of pain on the ruler. We then measure the distance from the zero point to the mark.;The range of motion of the sideflexion of the neck that is 25 to 45 degrees. Timepoint: Three times before and immediately after treatment. Method of measurement: The patient is placed in a flat position with a 90-degree flexion of the knee and thigh while the hands are resting on the thighs. The method of measurement is that the Goniameter axis is placed on the spinous process of seventh cervical vertebra. the fixed arm of the Goniameter perpendicular to the ground and its movable arm is placed parallel to the hypothetical vertical line of the head. To measure range of motion, the movement of the head is placed in an anatomical position and the end of the movement of the ear is close to the shoulder.;Age. Timepoint: Before treatment, which should be between 18 and 45 years. Method of measurement: Through a questionnaire and by year. | — |
