MeasureTime frame
Repeated measurements with crossover group comparisons (normal group/intervention group) will be performed to evaluate the effect of the stretching intervention every 20 minutes on reducing body burden based on the caregivers' NRS ratings for each body part using the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire (NMQ). A generalized linear model will be used to analyze the amount of change in physical burden from the start to the end of the assistance.
