Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Pain score evaluated by patient-rated visual analog scale: the levels of spontaneous pain is indicated by the patient by means of a 10 centimetre non-graduated scale, in which the patient could estimate the intensity of pain

    During patient visits: day 1, day 3 and day 5 to 10

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Mobility Hand-to-floor distance is evaluated by a simple graduated bar (0 value at floor).

    During patient visits: day 1, day 3 and day 5 to 10

  • Disability Questionnaire (Roland Morris)

    During patient visits: day 1, day 3 and day 5 to 10

  • Physician rated Clinical Global Impression Scale

    During patient visits: day 1, day 3 and day 5 to 10
