Note: *Positive effect sizes indicated that the outcomes at discharge favored the spinal source group.
n = sample size. NPRS = Numerical Pain Rating Score. OMPSQ = Orebro musculoskeletal pain questionnaire. UEFI = Upper extremity functional index.
LEFS = Lower extremity functional scale. GRC = Global rating of change
