Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change from Baseline Pain Level at Six Week

    Pain change will be measured throughout Study and Follow-up with Visual Analog Scale. This scale is a 100 millimeter line drawn horizontally on an A4 sheet of paper. The left end of the line shows "no pain at all", the right end shows "my pain is as bad as it could be", while the remaining part shows the intermediate values. So minimum score was 0, and maximum score was 100. The patient is asked to mark the severity of the pain on the chart. Validity and reliability were made. The minimal clinical significance difference in chronic low back pain was 20 millimeters.

    At baseline, six week
