What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
VAS and goniometer
Visual analog scaleThe Visual Analog Scale (VAS) is a 10 cm line with anchor statements on the left (no pain) and on the right (extreme pain) and universal goniometer to measure the range of motion, an instrument that measures angle motion at a joint.
Measured: 4 months
Secondary outcomes (1)
DASH questionaire
The disabilities of the arm, shoulder and hand (DASH) questionnaire is a self-administered region-specific outcome instrument developed as a measure of self-rated upper-extremity disability and symptoms. The DASH consists mainly of a 30-item disability/symptom scale, scored 0 (no disability) to 100
Measured: 4 months
