Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| fibromyalgia 2013 criteria | Six months | Fibromyalgia 2013 criteria were derived from the 10-item symptom score from the Symptom Impact Questionnaire (SIQR) symptoms and the 28-area pain location inventory (PLI). If the patients PLI score is above 17 (range 0-28) and an SIQR symptom score is above 21 (range 0-50), the participant will be diagnosed with fibromyalgia |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Fibromyalgia impact questionnaire | Six days | The fibromyalgia impact questionnaire (FIQ) has 21 individual questions . All questions are based on an 11-point numeric rating scale of 0 to 10, with 10 being 'worst'. In the FIQ, all questions are framed in the context of the past 7 days. The total maximal score of the FIQ is 100. |
| Pain thresholds | Six months | Pain thresholds will be recorded by applying pressure to the 28 sensitive points until the participants demonstrate pain. Manual algometry device will be used to measure the pain threshold. |
