Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
The main study parameter is the difference in energy expenditure per task during walking and stair climbing between subjects with CMP and healthy volunteers.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Differences in energy expenditure per minute during walking and stair climbing between subjects with CMP and healthy volunteers. Differences in energy expenditure per minute during walking and stair climbing between subjects with CLBP and FM. Differences in time needed to complete both tests between subjects with CMP and healthy volunteers. Energy expenditure per performed task measured with the Sense Wear Pro Armband	—
