What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure

SF-12 consisted of 12 items, which were categorized into eight domains (subscales) of functioning and well-being: physical functioning, role-physical, role emotional, mental health, bodily pain, general health, vitality and social functioning, with each domain score ranged from 0 (poor health) to 100 (better health), higher scores indicated good health condition. These eight domains were further summarized into 2 summary scores, physical component summary (PCS) and mental component summary (MCS). The score range for each of these 2 summary scores was from 0 (poor health) to 100 (better health), higher scores indicated a better health-related quality of life.
