Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Pain (Subjective Symptom) | Baseline and Week 4 | Change of pain measured by 100 mm visual analogue scale (VAS) at week4 from baseline. Regarding VAS (dotted onto a 100 mm line), 0 mm means No Pain and 100 mm means Worst Pain Imaginable. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Improvement Rate of Pain (Doctor's Judgment) | Baseline and Week 4 | Percentage of participants qualified for improvement of pain by doctor's judgement. Qualification: stopped or almost stopped, alleviated, slightly alleviated, unchanged, worsend. Improvement defind by stopped or almost stopped or alleviated. |
