Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change of Visual analog scale | Change from baseline Visual analog scale at immediately after intervention and Change from Baseline visual analog scale at 1 week. | Pain measurement Score from 0-10, 0 means no pain and 10 means maximum pain. Higher scores mean worse outcome. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Modified Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index | Change from Baseline Modified Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index at 1 week. | To assessing pain, stiffness, and function in patients with osteoarthritis. Score from 0-220. Higher scores mean worse outcome. |
