Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| ProFitMap-Neck Questionnaire | 1st day | The functional limitation scale (function index) and the symptom scale (often and much) are the two original ProFitMap-neck measures,each with 20 and 27 items, respectively. There are six response options for each item, which fall into the following categories. The function index ranges from ''very good, no problems, very satisfying, very likely to ''very awful, extremely difficult/impossible, extremely dissatisfying, extremely unlikely, Symptom scale with intensity index (how much) ranging from ''nothing/nothing at all to ''nearly unbearable/ terrible, all/maximally; The frequency index (how often) ranges from ''never/very seldom to ''very often/always on the symptom scale.The index values are scaled from 0 to 100. Higher ratings indicate improved function/health. The intensity index and the frequency index are two different types of indexes. |
| Neck Pain Disability Index | 1st day | The Neck Pain Disability Index assesses the severity of neck pain symptoms and its impact on daily life. It has ten sections that cover pain intensity, attention/focus, headaches, and daily activities. The items include six response options ranging from no disability (0) to total disability (5), giving a total score of 0 to 50.The Neck Disability index was normalized from 0 to 100 in this study, with higher scores indicating more disability. |
