What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change from Baseline Visual Analog Scale (VAS)
Time Frame: 2 weeks, 6 months, 1 year
|
This is part of the Patient Questionnaire primary outcome measure.
A Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) is a measurement instrument that measures the intensity or frequency of pain across a continuum of values.
|
2 weeks, 6 months, 1 year
|
Change from Baseline Prolo Functional and Economic Score
Time Frame: 2 weeks, 6 months, 1 year
|
This is part of the Patient Questionnaire primary outcome measure.
The Prolo Score is a 10-point scale consisting of only two questions evaluating the functional and economic status of the patient.
|
2 weeks, 6 months, 1 year
|
Change from Baseline Dallas Pain Questionnaire (DPQ)
Time Frame: 2 weeks, 6 months, 1 year
|
This is part of the Patient Questionnaire primary outcome measure.
The Dallas Pain Questionnaire (DPQ) assess the amount of chronic spine pain that affects the patient's daily and work-leisure activities, anxiety-depression, and social interest.
|
2 weeks, 6 months, 1 year
|
Change from Baseline Short Form 12 (SF-12)
Time Frame: 2 weeks, 6 months, 1 year
|
This is part of the Patient Questionnaire primary outcome measure.
The Short Form 12 (SF-12) was designed to measure the patient's functional health and well-being.
|
2 weeks, 6 months, 1 year
|
Change from Baseline Oswestry Disability Index (ODI)
Time Frame: 2 weeks, 6 months, 1 year
|
This is part of the Patient Questionnaire primary outcome measure.
The Oswestry Disability Index measures a patient's impairment and quality of life due to pain.
|
2 weeks, 6 months, 1 year
|
