Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• Cornell Musculoskeletal Discomfort Questionnaire

  This questionnaire is used to access discomfort caused by Musculoskeletal disorders. It has 3 scales, frequency, severity and interference scale. It has 3 versions on the basis of the nature of work place and activity level i.e. Sedentary workers, standing workers and hand discomfort. Sedentary workers don't include the "foot" domain while the standing worker has this domain. The hand discomfort version is used to access only hand problems. Its interpretation can be done by multiplying all the scale score.

  1st day

• Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire

  The Nordic Questionnaire is an internationally recognized tool for standardization research on Musculoskeletal symptom assessment. Its goal is to use an ergonomically approach to analyze Musculoskeletal problems. The very first component of this instrument includes questions on body parts that correlate to nine anatomical regions. The questions were structured in the following sequence: yearly and weekly prevalence; functional disability; and seeking medical treatment in the last year. This questionnaire can be used in an examination or by the individual who is now being assessed.

  1st day

• Visual Analogue Scale

  The Visual Analogue Scale was created to represent the concept of a fundamental continuity. A Visual Analogue Scale is typically a straight stripe measuring 100 mm long, with word descriptions for each end. The patient draws a line through the spot on the line which they believe best describes their present state. The Visual Analogue Scale score is calculated by calculating in millimeters as from the line's left side to the point marked by that of the patient. It usually ranges from "0" indicating "no pain" to the "10" indicating "worst pain".
