Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The outcomes of the study are the EK lifting tests (kilogram), the IRA (0-100%) and the musculoskeletal disorders related pain intensity and disability (scale 0-100). From the results of the present study, we will conclude whether the EK lifting tests are valid. These lifting tests, assessed by a certificated rater, can be legitimately used in discriminative and evaluative purposes to assess the functional physical capacity of people with or without musculoskeletal disorders.
