Table 4.
Shows correlation amongst change in score of various patient reported outcome instruments. Pearson’s correlation coefficient (r) was used to check the strength of association and ∗ indicates significant p value. (ODI = Oswestry disability index; RMDQ = Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire; SF-12 PCS = Physical component of Short Form-12; SF-12 MCS = Mental component of Short Form-12).
Patient reported outcome instruments | ODI r (p-value) | RMDQ r (p-value) | SF-12 PCS r (p-value) | SF-12 MCS r (p-value) |
